If you loved the relentless drive and constant sense of purpose that Han, Norra, and their crew brought to Life Debt, you'll be riveted by Leviathan Wakes. Here, Jim Holden and his ragtag team are drawn into a galactic conspiracy and must race against time to prevent disaster, all while the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. The book's action-packed narrative and clear objectives will keep you eagerly turning the pages.
If you were captivated by the dynamic group dynamic in Life Debt—from Norra Wexley and her team to the infamous Han Solo—Ninefox Gambit offers a similarly compelling ensemble. You'll follow the brilliant but outcast Kel Cheris, the enigmatic undead general Shuos Jedao, and a host of intriguing allies and enemies as they navigate a mind-bending war. The shifting allegiances and complex relationships will scratch that ensemble itch.
If you enjoyed the way Life Debt let you see the unfolding conflict through the eyes of Norra, Han, and even adversaries like Rae Sloane, you'll love how The Collapsing Empire weaves together the perspectives of ambitious nobles, cunning politicians, and sharp-witted captains. The multiple viewpoints let you experience the stakes—and the betrayals—from every angle, creating a rich tapestry of interconnected stories.
If the flawed, sometimes ruthless decisions of Norra’s crew or Han Solo’s morally gray actions in Life Debt drew you in, then Altered Carbon will deliver. Takeshi Kovacs is a gritty, battered protagonist who constantly straddles the line between right and wrong in a corrupt, noir-infused future. His choices are never simple, and the story’s ethical ambiguity will keep you guessing.
If you found yourself invested in Norra Wexley’s evolution from rebel pilot to determined leader, or in the way her team confronts their own demons in Life Debt, Red Rising offers an equally intense journey. Watch as Darrow is forced to reinvent himself completely to survive a brutal, stratified society—his growth is both painful and triumphant, and you’ll be cheering for him every step of the way.
