Product Description
James S. A. Corey-pen name of Daniel Abraham and Ty Frank, George R. R. Martin's assistant-gives us a good old-fashioned space opera shot with a strong dose of noir mystery, in Leviathan Wakes.
In a future where humanity has colonized the solar system but the stars are still out of reach, tensions run high among the working class Belters, the elitist Earthers and the militant Mars Navy.
When ice miner Jim Holden and his crew stumble upon a derelict ship, The Scopuli, they find themselves in possession of a secret they never wanted. A secret that someone is willing to kill for-on an unimaginable scale. An intra-system war may erupt unless Holden can find out who left the ship and why.
On Ceres Station, Detective Miller is looking for a girl. One girl in a system of billions, but her parents have money, and money talks. When the trail leads him to The Scopuli and rebel sympathizer Holden, he and the miner must connect the dots between Earth's government, the Outer Planet revolutionaries and secretive corporations. Nothing less than humanity's survival is at stake-and the odds are against them. But out in the Belt, the rules are different, and two bold men may change the fate of civilization.
