How do you fight an opponent who seems invincible? The solar system is seized by a space fleet upgraded using alien technologies, and Winston Duarte, the sole ruler of countless worlds, considers himself a new stage of evolution. And although the fall of the Laconic Empire freed more than two thousand solar systems from Duarte’s rule, the ancient enemy isn’t sleeping—and starts a new war against our universe. But humanity hasn’t perished yet, and Captain James Holden and the crew of the Rocinante already have a plan to build the future out of ruins and the shattered past—creating a great galactic civilization freed from wars, hatred, lies, and secrets. Don’t miss the incredibly gripping conclusion of the greatest space opera of the decade, awarded the Hugo Prize and inspiring the creators of the TV series The Expanse.
