Leviathan Reads

What's up with Fred? Well, it depends when you ask. If you ask him when he is butchering Anderson Station, he's not doing great! If you ask him while he's being interrogated by the vengeful partisans about it, he's probably doing worse.

We read the charming recollections of the famed inventor Solomon Epstein, as he is slowly flattened by his own invention.

Holden and the crew of the Rocinante make it out alive from the alien death world (again) with a psycho prisoner on board (again). The future of Ilus is uncertain, which is a major upgrade from the previous status, which was "doomed".

Holden's enemies and friends follow him to the strange place where the alien subway deposited him. Then they all shoot it out, mostly with each other, but eventually the right people get shot. Then Elvi teams up with Miller, and with her brains and his giant alien carapace, they manage to reach the incomprehensible thing they've all been seeking.

Miller has a new body! It is less noirish and more murderbottish than his last one, but it helps Holden get close to the mysterious anomaly they're searching for. Meanwhile it's battle in space as the Stupid Militia attacks the Rocinante while they are busy doing hero stuff.

Elvi figures out why Holden is immune to the proto-algic eyeball invader: his cancer meds. Turns out getting thoroughly irradiated is not without some long-term benefit. Meanwhile the Rocinante's rescue mission of the Barbapiccola is derailed by a nihilistic attack by the inner space militia. Very not cool.

As Elvi races to find a solution to the eye algae, Alex arms Basia and sends him to attack Havelock's space militia. Shooting at people in zero-G is not that different from welding, if you think about it.

Things are not going well on Ilus. Between the planetwide cataclysm, the unending threat of the poisonous death slugs, the disabling of all fusion reactions, and the alien organism infecting everybody's eyeballs, the conflict among the colonists doesn't seem so bad. Holden can look on the bright side. Because he's the only one not going blind.

Havelock realizes that Naomi, now his captive, is cooler than anybody on his side. He doesn't have much time to ponder this, because the planet explodes. This poses a major problem for the inhabitants of the planet.

Back on the Rocinante, the crew gets an an unfortunate downgrade when Basia joins as a prisoner, and Naomi is captured by Havelock (of all people!). Holden tries to stave off the inevitable bloody resolution of the conflict on the planet. None of them care that the moon is melting.
