The third book in the best-selling series, which sold ten million copies, won a Hugo Award, and served as the basis for a television series that lasted six seasons.
The Protomolecule is a substance of extraterrestrial origin that can subjugate and transform organic matter. Billions of years ago, it was thrown into the Solar System with the aim of remaking the Earth's biosphere, which at that time consisted of single-celled organisms. But it did not reach Earth, and got stuck on a satellite of Saturn, where it was only recently discovered by an expedition of Martians.
The Protomolecule destroyed thousands of people on Eros and almost killed the entire population of Mars, and then, hiding under the clouds of Venus, built something for almost a year. And now the artifact it created has appeared in orbit around Uranus. This is a giant Ring, a portal to starless darkness. John Holden's Rocinante is sent to investigate a mysterious object as part of a large fleet of ships. Does the Ring promise humanity the greatest opportunity or a deadly threat? But while scientists, military personnel, and journalists try to find an answer to this question, Holden and his crew are in much greater danger.
