The Expanse meets Game of Thrones in J. S. Dewes's fast-paced, sci-fi adventure The Last Watch, where a handful of soldiers stand between humanity and annihilation. The Divide. It’s the edge of the universe. Now it’s collapsing—and taking everyone and everything with it. The only ones who can stop it are the Sentinels—the recruits, exiles, and court-martialed dregs of the military. At the Divide, Adequin Rake commands the Argus. She has no resources, no comms—nothing, except for the soldiers that no one wanted. Her ace in the hole could be Cavalon Mercer--genius, asshole, and exiled prince who nuked his grandfather's genetic facility for “reasons.” She knows they’re humanity's last chance.

Kick off the convo with a theory, question, musing, or update
Let’s start from the beginning. The first 100 pages were rough, and seem like almost a completely different story from the rest of it. The two main characters tried to have backstory and such but I never quite connected with them or any of the characters. When people died it was like... oh well. So much telling very little showing.
Honestly considered dnf-ing multiple times but the plot was just interesting enough to keep me going.
I finished it though, so that counts for something. But it is an insult to say this is like the expanse meets game of thrones... it’s just not like that at all.
