Publisher’s Summary
The third book in the New York Times bestselling Expanse series, Abaddon’s Gate opens the door to the ruins of an alien gate network—and the crew of the Rocinante may hold the key to unlocking its secrets. Now a Prime Original series.
For generations, the solar system—Mars, the Moon, the Asteroid Belt—was humanity’s great frontier. Until now. The alien artifact working through its program under the clouds of Venus has appeared in Uranus’s orbit, where it has built a massive gate that leads to a starless dark.
Jim Holden and the crew of the Rocinante are part of a vast flotilla of scientific and military ships going out to examine the artifact. But behind the scenes, a complex plot is unfolding, with the destruction of Holden at its core. As the emissaries of the human race try to find whether the gate is an opportunity or a threat, the greatest danger is the one they brought with them.
Abaddon’s Gate is a breakneck science fiction adventure following the critically acclaimed Caliban’s War.
“Interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written.” —George R. R. Martin

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
4/5 stars — “good climax”
it started slow. not nearly as good start as the first two books. I was pretty bored at about the 30% mark. but it did pick up and brought me back in really well.— @LizDean, Audible listener
4/5 stars — “A little dragged out. “
The first half is good but around chapter 40ish it gets very dragged out in the story.— Joshua, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “brilliant”
another beautiful addition to the series. This one raises all kinds of interesting ethical questions and themes of forgiveness and redemption.— octoberlove1002, Audible listener
