James S.A. Corey is the pen name of fantasy author Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. They both live in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
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.

這一部的故事局限在一個星球上,四個POV加一個interlude有點多餘。事實上如果你隻看Holden和Elvi的章節完全不影響理解。全書充滿瞭冗長,自作聰明,毫無意義的對話,以及過度的心理描寫。讓人懷疑作者是來騙稿費的。最初的三方博弈顯得膚淺而刻意,幾章之後belter方徹底從博弈中消失瞭,衝突變得更加簡單粗暴,反派動機根本站不住腳。人物刻畫非常單薄,對Elvi的描寫難以讓人接受。最後的幾章也許纔是真正有趣的部分,可惜無法挽救整本書的失敗,僅作為係列中的一部,還能勉強接受。
評分科幻與西部片的結閤。我喜歡的太空科幻風格比預期中要少,導緻整本書看得很摺磨,一直在想放棄。到瞭最後打大boss的部分,呃,對盒子沒交待清楚,也許是給後麵幾部埋伏筆吧。

評分《無限星域》係列再次迴歸,照舊還是殘酷的環境和利益衝突,映照齣各種復雜人性,再加上神秘的外星科技,一路抓住讀者的注意力。
評分Some sort of adult version of Lord of the Flies. Understand why the authors styled the investigator parts differently, but those parts are just weird or out of tune.
