I have just read “Leviathan Wakes “ by James S A Corey. Wow what a read. It is space opera at its very best . Its set in our future where man has colonised the solar system. The main crux of the story is told from the view of two very interesting characters, Jim Holden, Xo of an ice miner and and Detective Miller, who is tasked with finding a missing girl. The two main characters are fascinatingly different and that whats makes the story even more engrossing.
Both characters courses of action are set because of their uncompromising natures and the story as it develops just makes you want to read more. The author should be credited because not only does he introduce loads of themes into his story, he doesn’t skimp on short changing you on any aspect of it. I was gripped from page 1 to the last. At least it wasn’t a short book.
I would very much recommend this to anyone who would want a fast paced interesting read. It is hugely entertaining and it also is a fascinating look at how man conquers the solar system .Read it and you wont regret it.
My ranking….a fantastic 10/10
