À propos de cet audio

With over 10 million copies sold, The Expanse has become one of the biggest science fiction phenomenons of the decade.

The sixth book in the New York Times bestselling Expanse series, Babylon's Ashes has the galaxy in full revolution and it's up to the crew of the Rocinante to make a desperate mission to the gate network and thin hope of victory. Now a Prime Original series.


A revolution brewing for generations has begun in fire. It will end in blood. The Free Navy—a violent group of Belters in black-market military ships—has crippled the Earth and begun a campaign of piracy and violence among the outer planets. The colony ships heading for the thousand new worlds on the far side of the alien ring gates are easy prey, and no single navy remains strong enough to protect them.

James Holden and his crew know the strengths and weaknesses of this new force better than anyone. Outnumbered and outgunned, the embattled remnants of the old political powers call on the Rocinante for a desperate mission to reach Medina Station at the heart of the gate network. But the new alliances are as flawed as the old, and the struggle for power has only just begun.

Babylon's Ashes is a breakneck science fiction adventure following the bestselling Nemesis Games.

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

Ce que les critiques en disent

This is a high-octane continuation of a series that has quickly become the biggest thing in science fiction.—The B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog on Babylon's Ashes
"The science fictional equivalent of A Song of Ice and Fire...only with fewer beheadings and way more spaceships."—NPR Books on Cibola Burn
"Combining an exploration of real human frailties with big SF ideas and exciting thriller action, Corey cements the series as must-read space opera."—Library Journal (Starred Review) on Cibola Burn
"The Expanse series is the best space opera series running at full tilt right now, and Cibola Burn continues that streak of excellence."—io9 on Cibola Burn
"Corey's splendid fourth Expanse novel blends adventure with uncommon decency."—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) on Cibola Burn
"A politically complex and pulse-pounding page-turner.... Corey perfectly balances character development with action... series fans will find this installment the best yet."—Publishers Weekly on Abaddon's Gate
"It's been too long since we've had a really kickass space opera. Leviathan Wakes is interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written, the kind of SF that made me fall in love with the genre way back when, seasoned with a dollop of horror and a dash of noir. Jimmy Corey writes with the energy of a brash newcomer and the polish of a seasoned pro. So where's the second book?"—George R. R. Martin on Leviathan Wakes
"An excellent space operatic debut in the grand tradition of Peter F. Hamilton."—Charles Stross on Leviathan Wakes
"High adventure equaling the best space opera has to offer, cutting-edge technology, and a group of unforgettable characters bring the third installment of Corey's epic space drama (after Caliban's War and Leviathan Wakes) to an action-filled close while leaving room for more stories to unfold. Perhaps one of the best tales the genre has yet to produce, this superb collaboration between fantasy author Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck should reawaken an interest in old-fashioned storytelling and cinematic pacing. Highly recommended."—Library Journal on Abaddon's Gate
"Literary space opera at its absolute best."—io9.com on Abaddon's Gate
"[T]he authors are superb with the exciting bits: Shipboard coups and battles are a thrill to follow."—Washington Post on Abaddon's Gate
"Riveting interplanetary thriller."—Publishers Weekly on Leviathan Wakes

I'm a huge fan of this series and Babylon's Ashes did not disappoint. it does a good job of tying up the nine book serie's "second act" - I think of it more as a set of three trilogies than a single nine book series.

This book features chapters from far more perspectives than past books. At times this became confusing, as a chapter was introduced with a name I didn't recognize. These often served to give an account of events in a location the main characters were not, such as in the "slow zone", or provide a different perspective. Definitely a departure from the series's norm, but I wasn't explicitly bothered by it.

Jefferson Mays is in fine form again. A performance on par with his other readings of the Expanse novels.

Another great book for The Expanse

If you're a fan of The Expanse TV series, this book takes some of what was gone over in the last season with the Free Navy and takes that a lot further. This is likely a lot of what would have happened had the series continued beyond season 6. I won't spoil anything obviously, but quite a bit happens in this, but also, I'm surprised it ended the way it did. Felt like it ended with a whimper rather than a bang, though it's obvious the future books will likely go beyond anything the show covered. There's also a few chapters discussing characters that were in previous books, but in this one, are really just treated as non-sequiters that I found a little bit odd. It was neat to see them come back up, but it felt like not much happened with them.

As usual though, I'm knocking a star off because of the infuriating way the authors write conversation. I've harped on this before and will continue to do so until they learn: You don't have to put "X said" after nearly every line of dialogue in a conversation. Other words exist that can express vocalization and with Jefferson Mays' typically excellent reading where he does give unique vocal traits to each of the major characters, it just isn't necessary to begin with. I don't think I've heard the word "said" in any 5 books as much as I hear it in one book of this series. Other authors don't have this problem or at least, alter the scripts of their audiobooks to account for the fact that someone is acting things out. It's frustrating and makes even the book's engaging conversations frustrating at times.

If you're this far into this book series, you should just grab this one and keep going. It's still a great entry and there's no point in stopping now.
