We are not alone.

On Ganymede, breadbasket of the outer planets, a Martian marine watches as her platoon is slaughtered by a monstrous supersoldier. On Earth, a high-level politician struggles to prevent interplanetary war from reigniting. And on Venus, an alien protomolecule has overrun the planet, wreaking massive, mysterious changes and threatening to spread out into the solar system.

In the vast wilderness of space, James Holden and the crew of the Rocinante have been keeping the peace for the Outer Planets Alliance. When they agree to help a scientist search war-torn Ganymede for a missing child, the future of humanity rests on whether a single ship can prevent an alien invasion that may have already begun.

Quotes

  • Наташа Воронинаhas quoted8 years ago
    Holden’s an idiot, but he’s not stupid. If he realizes he’s being watched, he’ll start broadcasting pictures of all our Ganymede sources or something. Do not underestimate his capacity to fuck things up.”
  • Наташа Воронинаhas quoted8 years ago
    Just don’t let the bobble-head talk about Venus or Eros.”
    His flinch was almost subliminal.
    “Please, can we not refer to the secretary-general as ‘the bobble-head’?”
    “Why not? He knows I do. I say it to his face, and he doesn’t mind.”
    “He thinks you’re joking.”
    “That’s because he’s a fucking bobble-head. Don’t let him talk about Venus.”
  • Наташа Воронинаhas quoted8 years ago
    The Belt had been an annoyance and a haven for tiny cells of renegades and troublemakers as likely to die of a ship malfunction as to be called to justice.
