Abaddon's Gate

Expanse, Book 3

De: James S. A. Corey

Narrado por: Jefferson Mays

For generations the solar system--Mars, the moon, the asteroid belt--was humanity's great frontier. Until now. The alien artefact working through its program under the clouds of Venus has emerged to build a massive structure outside the orbit of Uranus: a gate that leads into a starless dark.

Jim Holden and the crew of the Rocinante are part of a vast flotilla of scientific and military ships going out to examine the artefact. But behind the scenes, a complex plot is unfolding, with the destruction of Holden at its core. As the emissaries of the human race try to find whether the gate is an opportunity or a threat, the greatest danger is the one they brought with them.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Great characters, excellent dialogue, memorable fights, freakish experiments and twisty-turny mysteries" (Wired.com)

much sibilance in the va

the story teller does a good job however the entire book could benefit through some de essing

Better and better

This series keeps getting better and better IMO.
First book I could hardly keep focused on listening, 2nd book was way better and this 3rd one's really good.

Immersive

I love the details and the feeling of accuracy in the Expanse books. Descriptions of the practicalities of life in space, combined with a killer story make this yet another gripping epic.

Best installment so far.

I had trouble getting into the series with the writing style not being great fit with me and first books dealing a lot with JH's feelings and stuff I don't really care that much about. But I loved the show and I wanted to read it so I kept going. Third book was the first one I truly enjoyed. Looking forward to the next one.

So far the best book of the cycle

So far the best book of the cycle. I'm gonna check the next ones for sure!

Slow start, ends with a big bang!

Well narrated, compelling characters on an epic journey towards the unknown.. some of them would rather see everything burn while the others try to keep that from happening.

Still the early days, so who knows what awaits them in the deep, dark depths of space..

loved it

I am so glad that the TV show made me aware of this series, they are both really great and the science parts are really interesting.

really good

Nice entry to the series. Still enjoying the characters. Enjoying the new characters each book. looking forward to the next instalment.

Too much internal struggle

I love this series, but I’d say book 3 had too much of an internal struggle

Amazing

After watching season 3 on TV I couldn’t imagine how much was missed from the book, especially my favourite character Bull. What a ride! Now off to watch the next season but I’m more excited to listen to the next book in a the Expanse series.
