After enjoying the previous books in the series, this one just fell really flat for me. I felt like I could pretty much see the outline behind the plot points, and the coincidence of everyone from the Rocinante just happening to be in exactly the right places at exactly the right times throughout the solar system was too much to believe. Plus, the ending makes it seem like the whole story was just a red herring anyway. Simply did not dig. Some fun scenes and the writing itself was as good as ever, but I'm not sure why this book exists.
