Great subplot to series as a whole

Revisado: 06-13-24

Compelling story that continues the tale of John Bachelor, a spy so bad he doesn’t even warrant being a Slow Horse

If you enjoyed the series, read the books

Revisado: 06-10-24

Sometimes watching a series ruins the books, this is not at all the case with the Expanse. There is so much more to the books than the tv series, and I loved the tv series.

This volume is, perhaps, the best example of that, particularly when it comes to Naomi. Aspects of the character that made no sense on the screen, come to life here and make her one of the best, most complex characters in the series.

Cunning tale, brilliantly told

Revisado: 03-09-24

I cannot believe I had this so long in my list without listening to it. Everything that science fiction can be. There is much to be said about it, but I fear giving spoilers so I will just say listen or read. It’s worth it.

A complete page turner

Revisado: 08-12-23

I thoroughly enjoyed this latest volume in the series. Despite the fact I felt it was not quite as good as the earlier volumes, I found myself unwilling to put it down/ stop listening and sad when it ended. I look forward to the next installment

Remarkably well written, great characters and beautiful plot

Revisado: 07-17-23

Really, this may well be one of my favorite books. It is a tale of the dark reality of abandoned rural America told with an authentic and appealing voice. At times hysterical, at times grim, the story pulls you through a world that is seldom depicted in literature with a narrative that you won’t want to put down.


If you were ever tempted by Dickens, but found his 19th century style impenetrable, this is the perfect novel for you.

Well narrated version of the classic tale of woe

Revisado: 05-31-23

This was a very well narrated version of the classic work. As for the story itself, while some complain of the lack of heroic characters, I feel the skill of Emily Brontë shows in her ability to tell a tale that keeps you engaged despite the likability of its characters.

Great War story

Revisado: 05-20-23

This is a tale that tells of war in an occupied territory, and the story of those who live through it as civilians. It reads smoothly and well with compelling characters.

The only reason I don’t give it a five star review is that it plays into the good hearted noble savage trope, which Cherryh avoids in her later works. That os an artifact of the period it was written in, however, and as such can be ignored.

This is truly epic

Revisado: 05-02-23

This is, perhaps the most moving episode yet, and it has inspired me to finally write a review.

The depth and emotion shared by the narrator as he continues his Sysiphian reading of these timeless classics is truly moving.
