This is also true of Nemesis Games but in this novel, except for the prologue and the epilogue, this is tightened down to just Holden, Naomi, Alex and Amos. Each novel has a structure of chapters that swap from one character to the next, moving the action along, developing personal stories, reflecting on the action from more than one perspective. It’s time to dive in once more.Īlthough the Expanse novels follow the thread of a storyline in a wonderfully-realised, dangerous universe, each of the books is different and it’s no surprise that Nemesis Games is likewise something new. It also goes without saying that there may be spoilers below. This feeling makes the intensity of the traumatic and extreme events of Nemesis Games soar until the very last breathtaking page. If you’ve read Expanse from the beginning then by now you will feel very deep affection for Captain Holden and his XO Naomi and their pilot Alex and engineer (and all-purpose shooting, fighting security officer) Amos.

It could be argued that Nemesis Games is a self-contained story which does an excellent job of introducing the new reader to people and themes, but you would have to be bonkers to read this without having first enjoyed the previous four books.
THE EXPANSE BOOKS NAOMI SERIES
The crew of the Rocinante are back and how good it is to see them! Nemesis Games is the fifth Expanse novel and proves yet again, as every Expanse book does, why this series continues to be one of my favourite – actually, adored would be more accurate – series of any genre.
