Title: Leviathan Wakes
Post by: the-isz on December 02, 2012, 11:34:21 AM

Just finished this book and thoroughly enjoyed it. Good characters and well written dialogue.

My only complaint would be the ending seemed rushed, but otherwise, it hooked me from the beginning and had nice cliffhangers at each chapter to keep you going. I'm already on to his next in the series, Caliban's War.

Anyone else read it?

I bought it a while ago but I haven't got around to reading it yet. Now I might :)

Finished it a few weeks ago - not stellar but definitely good enough to spend a night on the couch :)

Read it now :)

Reasonably good and definitely worth a read. My only real issue wuth the book is how the author treats distances. Although he never actually mentions a distance in km between two objects, the distances between the various bodies in the solar system in terms of time seems to vary depending on the needs of the plot.
