The Treasure of Onion
The gates have opened and humanity is once again in a colonization frenzy...
After the events of the alien protomolecule and the opening of the ring gates, humans have a thousand uninhabited worlds within reach. Settlers are streaming into the cosmic frontier in search of a new life - or fleeing the old one. However, on the planet Ilus, nicknamed New Earth, a conflict soon breaks out among the first inhabitants and threatens to escalate into open war. Jim Holden and the crew of his ship Rosinante are there to prevent a clash between the resilient refugees from the Strip, who have already settled here, and the ruthless emissaries of the corporation that claims the entire territory by treaty from the United Nations. But it soon becomes clear that Ilus is hiding a secret far more dangerous than the squabbles between two rival camps of colonists. Can Holden prevent the bloodshed and can he and the others face the unexpected pitfalls left behind by a previous, long-extinct civilization?
The fourth installment of the award-winning science fiction series, which was the basis for the equally successful TV series The Expanse, resembles a true space western. Captain Jim Holden must unite the feuding settlers of a newly discovered planet in the face of an alien threat.
