Now a PRIME ORIGINAL series, Cibola Burn is the fourth book in the award-winning Expanse series, which is a New York Times bestseller. The gates have opened, paving the way for thousands of new worlds, and the rush for colonization has begun. Settlers looking for a new life arrive from humanity’s planets. Illus, the first human colony on this vast new frontier, is born in blood and fire. Independent settlers resist the overwhelming power of a corporate colony ship, armed only with their endless reserves of determination, courage, and the skills they gained in the distant wars of their homeland. Innocent scientists are slaughtered trying to explore a new and alien world. James Holden and the crew of his small ship are dispatched to bring peace in the midst of war and make sense of the chaos. But the more he watches, the more he thinks the mission was doomed to fail. And the whispers of the dead remind him that the great galactic civilization that once resided on this land has vanished and that something killed it.

The Expanse series is the biggest science fiction series of the past decade and is now a major television series.
