The Expanse Reread Intro: Book #7 Persepolis Rising!
In November, the long awaited ninth book of The Expanse series by James S.A. Corey will be hitting bookstore shelves, and what are us fans to do while we wait for the grand finale of the most epic sci-fi saga the genre has seen in years? Do a re-read, of course!
To celebrate the upcoming release of Leviathan Falls, the amazing team at Orbit Books has put together this multi-week event bringing together eight book blogs with a shared love of the series. I am so honored and thrilled to have been invited to take part, and as you can see from the participant list in the banner above, I’m in excellent company.
You may have already noticed some of the announcement posts and reviews around the blogosphere, but basically every blog has been tasked to feature a volume in the series, and this week it’s The BiblioSanctum’s turn to cover the seventh book, Persepolis Rising! At the end of this week, I’ll be sharing the thoughts of my re-read with you in a review, as well as to hand over the mantle to the next blogger on the list.
Anyway, out of all the books so far, Persepolis Rising is by far my favorite, so I’m definitely excited for it to be “my” book! 🙂
Be sure to stay tuned for my coverage on October 23rd, and in the meantime, you can head on over to the other blogs to see what’s been happening in the re-read event thus far. If you’re reading this series, you won’t want to miss this! And if you’re not caught up yet, don’t fret, because there’s plenty of time left before Leviathan Falls releases. Same goes if you’re completely new to this series, and I highly encourage you to check it out!
So, are you reading The Expanse? If not, are you planning to? Let me know your thoughts!

I wish I could do a reread of this series, but I don’t exactly have the time right now. I mean, I could probably do it, but it’d mean neglecting everything else that I’m already running behind on lol 😉
Plus I still have to catch up. I’m only up to Babylon’s Ashes. But… did you do the whole reread, or just the one book?

LOL just my book, I don’t think I have enough time to do a whole series reread either. Thank goodness the events of Persepolis Rising are also still somewhat fresh to me! It was my favorite one after all, and it also helped that it was the book with the “reset” 😀

A re-read of The Expanse is something I have been promising myself for some time, and once the series is completed I will have to find the time and TBR space to really DO it. Meanwhile, it will be fun to revisit book 7 through your eyes while I wait for the final (((sniffle… sniffle…))) book to be here 🙂

I also want to do an entire series reread at one point, but I’ll need to really prep myself and clear my schedule to focus on it, because it would be quite an endeavor. But oh how epic it would be!

I certainly will stay tuned for your post. I still need to start the series. I never read such serious scifi, but I enjoy such TV shows and liked the TV adaptation of this, so I think it’d work as my first serious scifi book.

Ahh, yes, Unfortunately I haven’t started this series yet – I do plan to and I bought the first couple, but it’s a case of always being somewhat behind.
