VITI reviewed La guerra de Calibán by James S.A. Corey (The Expanse, #2)

Dos grandísimos personajes a la palestra

5 stars

Si bien la primera parte era un duo entre dos personajes. Este ya es más una novela río, tenemos 4 personajes que se van alternando por cada capítulo. Y presentan a dos absolutas cracks de la saga, Avasarala y Bobby. Que les pondrías un piso a cada una.

La historia ahonda en las consecuencias de lo ocurrido en la primera parte, y en un maremágnum político y económico por intentar controlar un poder que nadie conoce, y las consecuencias que puede acarrear.

Muchas facciones implicadas pueden y falsas acusaciones pueden prender una mecha hacia la destrucción total.

Acción divertida, las relaciones entre los personajes aumentan a mayores, ya empiezas a sacarles sus cositas a cada uno. Y lo que quieres es que sigan teniendo aventuras a montones.

Tengo que buscar tiempo y ponerme con el siguiente.
