Persepolis Rising

Synopsis of Persepolis Rising

In the seventh book of the NYT bestselling Expanse series, Persepolis Rising finds an old enemy returning home with more power and technology than anyone thought possible. The crew of the aging gunship Rocinante tries to rally forces against the new invasion. In the thousand-sun network of humanity's expansion, new colony worlds are struggling to find their way, and every new planet lives on a knife edge between collapse and wonder. In the vast space between Earth and Jupiter, the inner planets and belt have formed a tentative and uncertain alliance still haunted by a history of wars and prejudices. On the lost colony world of Laconia, a hidden enemy has a new vision for all of humanity and the power to enforce it.
