Book Review :: Nemesis Games (Expanse #5)

Nemesis Games (Expanse, #5)Nemesis Games by James S.A. Corey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holden and gang are amazing as always, and personally, i feel this is the strongest Expanse series book so far. The last one was okay, readable, but this one opens up a lot of further avenues for storytelling and awesomness in the Expanse universe. I really loved that we got to see the viewpoint chapters of the whole team and for that alone it was a much tighter book than Cibola Burn.

When you read a book like this, you can't help falling a little bit in love with the characters, who are not perfect, they all have their flaws and they're all very very HUMAN. This is what sets this book series apart from a wide range of space opera, the human element is strong here, it makes the books fun, it makes the characters super-relatable and it sparks hope in your heart that no matter how bad things get, you can always count on friends and family, and it'll all work out when we work together.

Right now, really looking forward to the next book and I hope they explore the threads they've unwounded in this book. Specially, a view point of Filip, because there is much more to that character than the book explored.

Over all, five star book. If you've read the previous Expanse series books, don't miss this one.
