Through the wide-flung systems of humanity, Colonel Aliana Tanaka hunts for Duarte’s missing daughter… and the shattered emperor himself.

As nearly unimaginable forces prepare to annihilate all human life, Holden and a group of unlikely allies discover a last, desperate chance to unite all of humanity, with the promise of a vast galactic civilization free from wars, factions, lies, and secrets if they win.
But the price of victory may be worse than the cost of defeat.
“Tiamat's Wrath” has you wondering how everything will be resolved, how our heroes can go on and overcome the Lanconian Empire. And the solution is boht surprising and understandable in hindsight. No Deus ex Machina (at least not as a literary device), just a few guns hidden by Chekov.

Strong characterisation, following all the logic of previous books. Some excellent set pieces and interesting ideas about the gate builders.
I didn’t love the hand waving around the beings on the other side of the gates - his book steers away from the hard sci fi - but putting that aside, I enjoyed the book almost as much as Nemesis Games. Not as good as the first in the series though.
