Abaddon's Gate

This is (to date) my favourite of the Expanse novels. I felt a little unsure heading in, because while Holden and crew were around, the characters I had grown to love in Caliban's War were nowhere to be found. This seems to be the MO for author James Corey, though... and he introduces us to a new gang of misfits and miscreants who get thrust headlong into a situation that is both awe-inspiring and action filled. It's a wonderfully paced, evocative piece of writing.
