Leviathan Wakes: Book One of The Expanse Series - Book Review

I really enjoyed this. The overall start of the story is a somewhat common theme - the solar system is colonized (with mostly no magical tech, except maybe for a special fusion drive that is in itself a nice side story), and the powers (Earth, Mars, Belters) are on the edge against each other. Then something happens, and all hell breaks lose. The actual reason why all hell breaks loose is not that common, but really reminds me of Neal Asher 's books. Very good pacing and well kept suspense till the end, recommended.

My Blog Stats for 2013

For no good reason, I keep posting these early on every year. This year, almost every stat went down (counting my professional blog, restaurant blog and microsites): Posts: 152 (last year 232) Fiction Book Reviews: 39 (last year 51) Technical Book Reviews: 13 (last year 11) Game Reviews: 53 (last year 90) Visitors: 24712 (last year 33204 - this blog had some very successful reviews in 2012, so 2013 had a little more than half the traffic than in 2012 - all the others are actually doing better now) Overall, I am kind of OK with my posting habits, although I am fairly sure I completely skipped reviewing some books I read - and I do mind that. However, I am happy with the performance with my newest microsite, Directory Printer . Thanks for reading!
