| Why it’s on the list | The eighth of the nine Expanse novels, the one that sets up the finale. The series stays unusually close to home — a crowded Earth, colonies on Mars and in the outer system, ships on conventional propulsion, and conflict that comes out of recognisable planetary and asteroid-belt politics rather than far-future technology. |
Tiamat’s Wrath
Where I heard about it
- a16z’s infrastructure team — on the a16z Infra Reading List, A tier in Sci-fi / Very good books, listed under the Expanse series, which they describe as taking “the opposite approach” to most science fiction: near-future rather than far, with the interest in believable conflict and individual stories rather than advanced technology.
About this edition
I read the first volume, Leviathan Wakes, in 2019 as the opening book of a science-fiction reading group; the last volume, Leviathan Falls, is also on the list, so this is one of the volumes in between.
