Welcome to the Mercy of Pods, a podcast that is normally about The Captive's War by James S.A. Corey, but today we are continuing our coverage of the main Expanse narrative with the sixth set of chapters of CALIBAN'S WAR, also by James S.A. Corey. This episode is spoilers for the entire Expansiverse!
In this episode:
- Bobbie and Chrissie board the Roci, and hilarity ensues as the crew try to figure out how to deal with the big woman and the loud grandma.
- Chrisjen wields the full weight of her soft power to avoid getting obliterated by Nguyen's fleet and cuts off Errinwright at the knees.
- The Martians ride in to the rescue as we get the hugest space battle of the series (so far).
- Holden is thwarted by democracy.
- Clint gushes over Bobbie's preparations for battle and death.
- Brigid crushes the summary of this penultimate part of book two.
Join us next time when we cover the seventh and final part of CALIBAN'S WAR, where we find out who is that guy.
