The Belt residents have almost become another human species, with entire generations never having lived inside a gravity well. Despite their far more advanced navy, Mars is still terraforming and relying on Earth to keep them alive. Earth is humanity’s cradle, and remains so with the other two factions not realistically able to survive indefinitely without it. Leviathan Wakes tells a near-future story where humanity is divided into Earth, Mars and The Belt (Jupiter’s mineral rich rings). Is it the best sci-fi book I’ve read in a really long time? It most certainly is. I don’t feel that’s accurate, but it was a nice piece of marketing, I suppose.
Do I think it’s Game of Thrones in space? No. If I’m honest about it, I bought it on a whim based on that and a want to read more sci-fi of the same calibre as Richard K. I spotted Leviathan Wakes online touted as Game of Thrones in space.
