The start of the Expanse series - a fast-paced and thoroughly gripping new space adventure.
Humanity has colonised the planets - interstellar travel is still beyond our reach, but the solar system has become a dense network of colonies. But there are tensions - the mineral-rich outer planets resent their dependence on Earth and Mars and the political and military clout they wield over the Belt and beyond.
Now, when Captain Jim Holden's ice miner stumbles across a derelict, abandoned ship, he uncovers a secret that threatens to throw the entire system into war. Attacked by a stealth ship belonging to the Mars fleet, Holden must find a way to uncover the motives behind the attack, stop a war and find the truth behind a vast conspiracy that threatens the entire human race.

This book is perfect for lovers of space opera sci-fi. Set in interstellar space, far beyond our current reach, Leviathan Wakes explores a vast network of colonies that make up the solar system, adn then tensions surrounding them. Wonderfully written. Definitely recommend. - Georgia (QBD)
