'Interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written' George R. R. Martin

The Laconian Empire has fallen, setting the thirteen hundred solar systems
free from the rule of Winston Duarte. But the ancient enemy that killed the
gate builders is awake, and the war against our universe has begun again.

In the dead system of Adro, Elvi Okoye leads a desperate scientific mission to
understand what the gate builders were and what destroyed them, even if it
means compromising herself and the half-alien children who bear the weight of
her investigation. Through the wide-flung systems of humanity, Colonel Aliana
Tanaka hunts for Duarte's missing daughter. . . and the shattered emperor
himself. And on the Rocinante, James Holden and his crew struggle to build a
future for humanity out of the shards and ruins of all that has come before.

As nearly unimaginable forces prepare to annihilate all human life, Holden and
a group of unlikely allies discover a last, desperate chance to unite all of
humanity, with the promise of a vast galactic civilization free from wars,
factions, lies, and secrets if they win.

But the price of victory may be worse than the cost of defeat.

'A thrill ride of a tale . . . This is a deeply satisfying and fitting
conclusion to one of the best space opera series in many years' Booklist
