The sixth book in the NYT best-selling Expanse series, Babylon's Ashes has the galaxy in full revolution, and it's up to the crew of the Rocinante to make a desperate mission to the gate network and thin hope of victory. Now a Prime Original series.

A revolution brewing for generations has begun in fire. It will end in blood.

The Free Navy - a violent group of Belters in black-market military ships - has crippled the Earth and begun a campaign of piracy and violence among the outer planets. The colony ships heading for the thousand new worlds on the far side of the alien ring gates are easy prey, and no single navy remains strong enough to protect them.

And whether your home is down a gravity well or on a ship with your chosen family, it's a fine place to be :).

Babylon’s Ashes est le sixième volume de la saga de science-fiction The Expanse signée James S.A. Corey, le nom de plume du duo composé des auteurs Daniel Abraham et Ty Franck.

Le cinquième tome, Nemesis Games, m’avait emballé, il rebattait les cartes et promettait beaucoup pour la suite. Ce sixième volume reprend l’intrigue peu de temps après la fin du précédent.

Ma première réaction en découvrant la table des matières a été d’être surpris par le grand nombre de personnages différents listés en face de la cinquantaine de chapitres qui composent le livre.

Parmi ces personnages, il y a un peu de tout :

- Des protagonistes récurrents auxquels nous sommes désormais habitués : Holden, Naomi, Bobbie, Filip découvert dans le tome précédent et que l’on continue de suivre ici, etc.

- De vieilles connaissances de retour : par exemple Prax, que l’on n’avait pas revu depuis le deuxième volume …
