Cibola Burn

Cibola Burn is probably my least favorite of the series to date, but I am still on board for continuing the series. The story features an alien planet with a complicated history, and I enjoyed watching our characters slowly unravel its story. On the other hand, the human conflict of the story was driven by cardboard villains and shown through the perspectives of some unremarkable viewpoint characters. I felt like most of the non-Holden storylines had just too much filler and not enough of the main story. It's still an important volume in the continuing story of The Expanse, it just didn't thrill me as much as some of the others have.
