À propos de cet audio
From the Hugo Award–winning and New York Times bestselling author of the Expanse, James S. A. Corey, comes the start of a monumental new space opera series.
HOW HUMANITY CAME TO THE PLANET CALLED ANJIIN IS LOST IN THE FOG OF HISTORY, BUT THAT HISTORY IS ABOUT TO END.
The Carryx—part empire, part hive—has waged wars of conquest for centuries, destroying or enslaving species across the galaxy in its conflict with an ancient and deathless enemy.
When they descend on the isolated world of Anjiin, the human population is abased, slaughtered, and put in chains. The best and brightest are abducted, taken to the Carryx world-palace to join prisoners from a thousand other species.
Dafyd Alkhor, assistant to a prestigious scientist, is captured along with his team.
Even he doesn’t suspect that his peculiar insight and skills will be the key to seeing past their captors’ terrifying agenda.
Swept up in a conflict beyond his control and vaster than his imagination, Dafyd is poised to become humanity’s champion—and its betrayer.
This is where his story begins.
“No one builds a universe like James S. A. Corey. The Mercy of Gods is wilder and weirder than you can imagine, and when it ends, all you’ll want is … more.”—John Scalzi, New York Times bestselling author

Nine hundred thousand years ago, something annihilated the Amarantin civilization just as it was on the verge of discovering space flight. Now one scientist, Dan Sylveste, will stop at nothing to solve the Amarantin riddle before ancient history repeats itself. With no other resources at his disposal, Sylveste forges a dangerous alliance with the cyborg crew of the starship Nostalgia for Infinity. But as he closes in on the secret, a killer closes in on him because the Amarantin were destroyed for a reason.

The old world is buried. A new one has been forged atop the shifting dunes. Here in this land of howling wind and infernal sand, four siblings find themselves scattered and lost. Their father was a sand diver, one of the elite few who could travel deep beneath the desert floor and bring up the relics and scraps that keep their people alive. But their father is gone. And the world he left behind might be next.

The world outside has grown toxic, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. The remnants of humanity live underground in a single silo. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they want: They are allowed to go outside.

When COVID-19 sweeps through New York City, Jamie Gray is stuck as a dead-end driver for food-delivery apps. That is, until Jamie makes a delivery to an old acquaintance, Tom, who works at what he calls “an animal rights organization”. Tom’s team needs a last-minute grunt to handle things on their next field visit. Jamie, eager to do anything, immediately signs on. What Tom doesn't tell Jamie is that the animals his team cares for are not here on Earth. Not our Earth, at at least. In an alternate dimension, dinosaur-like creatures named Kaiju roam a warm and human-free world.

Supreme Grand Master Azrael summons Lazarus and his Fifth Company to honour an old debt on the Knight world of Reis – a planet upon which the warp has set its hungry gaze. But Lazarus is not so sure Reis wants to be saved – its Knights are long lost, its governance is dogged by political strife, and internecine conflict hampers the world’s defence against an ancient evil. An evil which, like Lazarus himself, refuses to die.

Amazing
Strongly recommend.
First 4 chapters, I admit, were a slow start. Chapter 5 started to connect. Chapter 6 exploded. It turns out the groundwork had to be laid. The 30+ chapters onward were hands down among the best science fiction of any generation.
How does a writing duo meet expectations after something as epic as the Expanse? This book found a way. Unique approach (smaller character group, telling an equally massive story), deep characters, and a menagerie of highly satisfying cool alien elements, come together to feel at once entirely different but with the same voice and mastery.
Read this.

Just great!
I haven't enjoyed a sci fi book as much since The Reality Dysfunction. Amazing concept, cracking characters, great story, good bit of science, and as well high stake philosophical conundrums/dilemmas (though I was enjoying the story too much to spend to much time thinking about those).

Not to the levels of The Expanse
Spoiler free
I felt that the book finished too early for my taste.
The characters are good, but I didn't get attached to any as much as I did in The Expanse.
I'll still follow the serie hoping for more developments.
Just manage your expectations.

Slow-Burn in all the good ways
Great entry to the new series. really sets the tone early and keeps you wondering what will happen next. Also, totally brutal at a few parts haha. phew Boi!
only point taken off was I had a hard time distinguishing different characters by the VA. VA is great and I really enjoyed their work with the Expanse series. maybe next book, more subtle accents or different tones?
can't wait for the next one!

Once again, delicious writing!
Yes, it was slow moving at first but they were setting the stage for this epic journey! I am entranced by the evocative writing woven into an intrcate and complex plot. I cannot wait for the next in the series!!

Boring Start
I loved the Expanse and I’m excited to see where this new series goes. But I think it needed more to it. It felt very repetitive and lacking of good plot.
