I was glad to read another Expanse novel after a couple years wait. It did feel a bit like the Simpsons Star Trek parody, "so very tired"…"Again with the Klingons". I don't find Duarte as a villain interesting. Even Mau in the earlier books was a villain of convenience so this just feels forced. The unknown as antagonist was more scary and more interesting.

This is the first book in the series that I didn't finish. Spoilers: I miss the good old days of the Rocinante flying around the universe, new characters being introduced, and Avasarala being a scheming badass. 30 years later, no new characters have shown up, we're stuck on a station hiding like rats, and I can already tell that the book isn't going to wrap everything up in the end. I may give it another try if people tell me that the next book is great, but for now, it goes back on the shelf.
