As with the other books in this series, I looked forward to picking it up daily and continuing to read. There are fun ideas, personalities that have become warm friends, and a string of challenges for the crew of the Rocinante to (mostly) overcome, though the ever-strong Roci is sadly bridled and in stocks more than I wanted in this installment. Still, if you have read the prior books in the series, you should definitely read this one too.
I must say, though, that there are a couple of cracks In the bulkhead that are starting to show up for me. Several times reading through this book, I felt like the authors’ pace had slowed down too far. It felt like there was filler I shouldn’t have to wade through ... like they were turning one book into two for the sake of sales. There was plenty of detailed painting of the flowers on the wall of the moment, and not the fast advance through the story that was the hallmark of the prior books.
Enough so that I am starting to tire of this journey. The wait for the plodding insurrection on Medina station to have a meaningful impact on moving the story was truly starting to drive me nuts, as was the inexorably slow wait for the space battle between the trade union and the invaders. I yearned for the quick moving machinations of Avasarala, who - both in, and like the book - has become long in the tooth.
The tragic character of the occupying governor on Medina station also weakened the story for me. The character was too obviously flawed and doomed from the beginning. It was painful, not in a good way, to have to process this as part of the story arc.
On the plus side, it was nice that the book makes us examine the moral dilemma posed by being subject to a benevolent dictatorship. It is an interesting idea to develop in the context of actual politics and governance on planet earth in the year 2018. Some of the best science fiction in history has served to highlight what it might mean to wield ultimate power without checks and balances. I hope the next book will rise to the challenge of greatness regarding this, and be a great commentary on the governance of the human situation.
Finally, I simply find myself wanting to see how the story is going to end. After the cliffhanger of an ending in this book, I’m sure I will read the next one.
