The war raged across the galaxy. Billions had died, billions more were doomed. Moons, planets, the very stars themselves, faced destruction, cold-blooded, brutal, and worse, random. The Idirans fought for their Faith; the Culture for its moral right to exist. Principles were at stake. There could be no surrender. Within the cosmic conflict, an individual crusade. Deep within a fabled labyrinth on a barren world, a Planet of the Dead proscribed to mortals, lay a fugitive Mind. Both the Culture and the Idirans sought it....

This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

In the endless forests of the Wild, humanity scratches a living by the side of the great Godroads, paths of crystal that provide safe passage and hold back the infernal tide. Creatures lurk within the trees, watching, and plucking those who stray too far from safety. In crystal castles held aloft on magical currents, seven timeless royal families reign, protecting humanity from the spread of the Wild and its demons. Born and reborn into flawless bodies, the Deathless are as immortal as the precious stones from which they take their names. For generations a fragile balance has held.

Nice novella addition to Expanse series
Nice Novella giving bigger view of Expanse universe. Would of course loved to see entire book that pulled in these characters ( other than Duarte who IS in the series ). I really enjoyed this and happy I bought it; got much more out of this than Vital Abyss.

Perfect Novella!
With Strange Dogs author James Corey adeptly adds to his acclaimed Expanse series by introducing us to the world of Laconia...a planet very much like Earth...but different. Corey let's us experience Laconia through the senses of an adolescent human girl named Cara. She sees the alien planet through the eyes of a child for whom it is the only home she has known. Corey evokes wonderous and magical imagery reminiscent of Juliet Andromeda Mao as she became Eros in his inaugural Expanse novel. He seems to be asking, what humans can become when we venture beyond our terrestrial home...when WE become extraterrestrial? Voice talents are beautifully handled by Jefferson Mays. Strange Dogs satisfies on every level! Perfect.

Great perspective
Refreshing to see this world through the eyes of a human child that knows nothing else.

Different...
Fans of the mainline Expanse books know the novellas fill in interesting aspects of the story. This one is a different style. While the content fits the Expanse universe the story is essentially a YA plot. It's a bit dark -- call it PG-13 for violence, adult language, and adult themes. We'll see how (if) it fits in the big picture when the next Expanse novel comes out later this year.

Important after Babylon, but not Wow
You definitely have to read this after Babylon to understand what's happening on Laconia, but I wasn't crazy about the story.
