Reviews"If you like science fiction with great characters and set in real space, you'll enjoy this one."-- Jo Walton, author of Farthing on Leviathan Wakes, "Politics, philosophical ideals, and humor mingle in a tale that will shock and surprise."-- Publisher's Weekly on Abaddon's Gate (Starred Review), "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. Perhapsone 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 (starred review), "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 (Starred Review), "An excellent space operatic debut in the grand tradition of Peter F. Hamilton."-- Charlie Stross on Leviathan Wakes, "[T]he authors are superb with the exciting bits: Shipboard coups and battles are a thrill to follow."-- Washington Post, "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
