Tiamat's Wrath

Executive Summary: It's hard to say why I gave this book 5 stars without massive spoilers, so I'll simply say that I was always looking for reasons to keep listening, and had I been reading it instead I would have finished it much sooner.Audiobook: Another great job by Jefferson Mays. Early on I didn't find him that impressive, but when he didn't do [b:Cibola Burn 18656030 Cibola Burn (The Expanse, #4) James S.A.

I'm not sure if he's a narrator that I'd pick up another series for, but he's the only one I want narrating this series now.Full ReviewThis series has quickly become one of my favorites and each new book was always one of my most anticipated and best reads of the year.

It was definitely worth the wait.I'm really happy the show got picked up by Amazon and I hope they get to complete the series because once the final book is published I'd have a big Expanse (get it?) in my reading schedule.If you haven't read the books, or watched the show you're missing out and I highly recommend checking out one (or both) because I think they are fantastic. Now I'm going to eagerly await the release of Season 4 and then (hopefully) book 9.
