Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! DescriptionTiamat's Wrath is the eighth book in the New York Times bestselling and Hugo Award-winning Expanse series by James S. A. Corey.
In the wake of opening thirteen hundred gates to new solar systems across the galaxy, humanity is now on a quest to establish its interstellar empire amid the remnants of alien civilisations. Yet with each new discovery comes deeper mysteries and looming threats.
Elvi Okoye, navigating dead systems that harbour stranger phenomena than alien planets, embarks on a desperate mission: uncover the origins of a genocide that predates humanity and identify weapons to combat forces that lie at the very edge of the conceivable. The pursuit of such profound knowledge, however, carries a cost that may be far greater than what she is prepared to pay.
Within the core of this burgeoning empire, Teresa Duarte confronts the immense burden of her father's godlike aspirations. In a palace rife with schemes, she must navigate dangers that include the manipulative scientist Paolo Cortazar and the enigmatic prisoner James Holden. Yet Teresa possesses a mind full of secrets, some even hidden from her emperor father.
Meanwhile, the dispersed crew of the Rocinante wages a valiant fight against Duarte's totalitarian regime. As the memory of the old order fades, the prospect of Laconia’s perpetual rule looms large, hinting at a future that humanity seems destined to lose. With terror lurking in the spaces between worlds, sheer courage and ambition may prove insufficient in this epic battle.
The Expanse is hailed as the most significant science fiction series of the past decade and has been adapted into a critically acclaimed TV series.
