Average rating4.2
Through one of the gates, a colony stands alone. Their supplies are low. Their defenses, weak. The leadership is uncertain, and the community fragile. Huge alien beasts threaten the little they have left.
But the worst monsters are human, and the greatest dangers are the past they brought.

When I finished all the books in The Expanse series, I was only really disappointed with two things:
1. We never heard from Filip again. We never learned what happened to him. It felt like a wasted character. A lost opportunity.
2. When the gates permanently closed and drifted towards their suns to their deaths, we never got a chance to experience the lives and worlds stuck behind those gates. We'd never know how any would survive or not, cut off from the rest of humanity forever. What would those worlds do to survive on their own?
Well, this novella scratched the itch on both of those counts, if only slightly. Besides Filip, another minor character we know, daughter of Anna, is in this story. I wish it was longer and we could get to explore more of that survival of humanity behind the gates.
Perhaps the authors will explore that in the future. Maybe with immortal Amos, starting from the epilogue of Leviathan Falls, 1000 years in the future...
Solid last instalment to tie up the only loose end my brain had picked out of the main series
