Gods of Risk An Expanse Novella The Expanse eBook James S A Corey

So drugs are on mars. This can't hold a candle to the previous entry, the butcher of Anderson station. It's just a crime story set on mars. Could have been LA, NYC anywhere. The best part of it was Bobbie draper.

Gods of Risk An Expanse Novella The Expanse eBook James S A Corey Reviews

One thing these authors do really well is merge detailed character moments with a much large story that you know is always just around the corner.

Gods of Risk is no exception. With a narrow focus touching barely on the larger narrative you get a feeling for what is happening on Mars in ways that the big strategic view of the prior books ignores.

Oftentimes these Novella expansions are underwhelming and short and are basically unrealized novels. This is NOT the case with Gods of Risk. It stands alone nicely, touches on the larger universe and doesn't have the ghost of an unrealized full-length work attached.

I'd love to see more of these small vignettes from different random characters in different places. Give us a Belter novella!!!

Great expansion to the series and I can't wait for Cibola Burn!
Took a little over an hour, but it seemed like less. Fast paced and very engaging. Risk vs. reward is the game we all play, and sometimes get in over our head. The Gods of Risk have been kind to Bobbie Draper and those she cares about. Someone would describe a Marine saying "You could have no better friend, or no worse enemy." Bobbie fits that to a tee!
Corey tells a nicely rounded story in 'Gods of Risk,' using the novella length to draw both strong characters, a well-developed conflict and just enough attention paid to the setting that the story feels grounded. It might lack some of the action, set pieces and stakes that it's bigger brothers are known for, but the novella makes up for it with thoughtful storytelling, an interesting plot and believable, if not always likeable, characters. It's easy to call 'Gods of Risk,' <em>Degrassi Junior High-meets-Breaking Bad-meets-Total Recall</em>, and maybe that <em>is</em> all it's meant to be, but there's a nice character drama here and the novella stands as well as a stand alone story as it does a larger piece of the overall <em>Expanse</em> series. Worth of a shot if you're a fan of Corey's novels, or curious about his universe.
A decent short story, but like the other Expanse novellas, lacking something. If you haven't read it yet, wait until this one comes out in a collection. Honestly, when I think to myself, "I wonder what happened to Bobbie Draper?" This is not what I was thinking. I like my version better.
Seemed like kind of a useless short that didn't really reveal much about anything
I liked the writing and seeing a bit more in to Bobbies family but was underwhelmed. If it had been a chapter in the book I'd have been curious as to why it was written form David's point of view.
Still the series is gripping and I'm glad to buy these and support the authors
I like this a lot more when it came to Roberta (Bobbie) Draper and her condition/situation in the aftermath of "Caliban's War". This gives another view of Mars, and what growing up there would be like.

The main character, David Draper, Bobbie's nephew, is young and unformed. Not a very interesting young man, he seems even less connected to those around him than Amos does. Where in Amos it's part of his personality, to be laid back and takes shit as it comes yet has a simple appreciation for the little things, David feels like he's walking in his sleep. I didn't really care all that much for him, although his story brought more of Bobbie's story to light.
A very nice addition to the Expanse series. It's not crucial to the main storyline in the novels, but it does add a lot to some of the characters and the world itself. It explores Mars and what life and society is like there, and also contributes extra information about Bobbie Draper - her family, her motivations, and of course some more opportunities to show how much of a bad ass she is. It's a short, fun, and exciting read - good all by itself, and a must for the hard-core fan.
Robbie Draper,the Martian marine and temporary crew member of the Rocinante introduced in Caliban's War,the second full length entry in the Expanse series has mustered out after her narrow escape and is suffering from what used to be called combat fatigue. She's living with her brother and family in crowded conditions back on Mars. The aftermath of the fighting between Earth and Mars has left things unsettled and social unrest has made inroads in Mars as terrorist incidents stir the population. Her nephew has fallen in with some bad types and might just be in need of some serious assistance. Is Robbie up to the job? Solid read, good world building and well fleshed out characters especially Robbie whom I hope to see more of in the future. It doesn't hurt to have read the series up till now but it is not necessary as the Franck/Abraham writing duo that poses as James S. A. Corey is perfectly capable of writing an elegant stand alone short story. It may be marketed as a novella but trust me with an estimated read time of 1 hour and 9 minutes with 68 pages counting back end promo, its solidly in short story country.
So drugs are on mars. This can't hold a candle to the previous entry, the butcher of Anderson station. It's just a crime story set on mars. Could have been LA, NYC anywhere. The best part of it was Bobbie draper.
