Caliban’s War is a 2012 science fiction novel by James S. A. Corey (pen name of Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck).
It is about a conflict in the solar system that involves Earth, Mars, and the Asteroid Belt (colonies of people living on asteroids, referred to as “Belters”). …
The series was adapted for television by the Syfy Network, also under the title of The Expanse.
This is the book where the crew surprisingly decides to help a botanist in the search for his young daughter.
Martian Marine Bobby surprisingly goes to work for a senior Earth leader.
I did enjoy the crew finding a super soldier stowaway. And how they dealt with it.
All those themes of this book made it to the TV series adaptation.
I’m not sure how far I’ll get in the novels.
I have a library hold on book #3 but it will be an 18 week wait before I get it.
Caliban’s War is the second book in The Expanse series and is preceded by Leviathan Wakes.
