Cibola Burn (The Expanse, nr. 4)
De (autor) James S. A. Coreyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 05 May 2015
Poarta a deschis accesul la mii de noi lumi, iar cursa pentru colonizarea acestora a început.
Illus, prima colonie umană este născută din sânge și foc.
Coloniștii independenți rezistă împotriva puterii copleșitoare a unei nave-corporație doar prin determinare, curaj și abilități învățate în lungile războaie de pe Terra și Marte.
Oamenii de știință sunt primele victime ale acestei lumi necunoscute.
Jim Holden șî echipajul său de pe o mică navă sunt trimiși să facă pace în mijlocul războiului și în inima haosului.
Dar cu cât își apropie pașii de obiectivul misiunii sale, Jim Holden începe să se gândească este destinată eșecului.
Șoaptele unui om decedat îi reamintește că marea civilizație galactică este doar o amintire și că cineva necunoscut i-a dus la pierire.

Descriere
The
explosive
fourth
novel
in
James
S.A.
Corey's
New
York
Times
bestselling
Expanse
series.
Now
a
major
television
series.
Enter
a
new
frontier.
"An
empty
apartment,
a
missing
family,
that's
creepy.
But
this
is
like
finding
a
military
base
with
no
one
on
it.
Fighters
and
tanks
idling
on
the
runway
with
no
drivers.
This
is
bad
juju.
Something
wrong
happened
here.
What
you
should
do
is
tell
everyone
to
leave."
The
gates
have
opened
the
way
to
a
thousand
new
worlds
and
the
rush
to
colonize
has
begun.
Settlers
looking
for
a
new
life
stream
out
from
humanity's
home
planets.
Ilus,
the
first
human
colony
on
this
vast
new
frontier,
is
being
born
in
blood
and
fire.
Independent
settlers
stand
against
the
overwhelming
power
of
a
corporate
colony
ship
with
only
their
determination,
courage,
and
the
skills
learned
in
the
long
wars
of
home.
Innocent
scientists
are
slaughtered
as
they
try
to
survey
a
new
and
alien
world.
The
struggle
on
Ilus
threatens
to
spread
all
the
way
back
to
Earth.
James
Holden
and
the
crew
of
his
one
small
ship
are
sent
to
make
peace
in
the
midst
of
war
and
sense
in
the
midst
of
chaos.
But
the
more
he
looks
at
it,
the
more
Holden
thinks
the
mission
was
meant
to
fail.
And
the
whispers
of
a
dead
man
remind
him
that
the
great
galactic
civilization
that
once
stood
on
this
land
is
gone.
And
that
something
killed
it.

Recenzii
"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
"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 on Cibola Burn (Starred Review)
"The Expanse is the best space opera series running at full tilt right now, and Cibola Burn continues that streak of excellence."—io9 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
"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
