Hobbes is therefore an uncompromising superiority theorist and one who has become a central, prominent name when considering the superiority theory of humour. Unlike Descartes, who acknowledged some potentially positive considerations of the superiority theory of humour, such as the positive emotions of joy and wonder being capable of producing humour without the presence of hatred, and its ability to positively benefit society through facilitating corrective behaviour, Hobbes offered a more unforgiving account of humour, laughter and the superiority theory. ![]() ![]() ![]() I’ve been waiting for the rest of the crew of Rocinante to have their own POV chapters, and it finally happened here. ![]() ![]() I’ve mentioned in my review of Abaddon’s Gate and Cibola Burn that I had some issue with the choices of new POV characters. The average ratings speak for itself already all of these characters are the majority of The Expanse reader’s favorite characters in the series, and of course, Nemesis Games automatically became one of the highest rated books within the series because of this. Look, I can’t tell you how pleased I am by Corey’s decision to put all of these characters in one volume. I mean, with that kind of attitude, it’s not a surprise that Holden and the crew of Rocinante always get in trouble. That really is how you go through life, isn’t it?” And to make things even better, Fred, Bobbie, and Avasarala (Yesss!!!) have more spotlight here, and my god, this book/series is seriously so much better for it. Let me repeat that, Holden, Naomi, Alex, and Amos have their own POV chapters. But get this, for the first time in the series, we finally have an entire book with POV chapters told exclusively through the eyes of these four characters. Corey, once again put Holden, Naomi, Alex, and Amos in a tough spot. Nemesis Games, the fifth volume in The Expanse series by James S.A. Here we are at the halfway point of the series. It’s all about the crew of Rocinante, and that’s the main reason why Nemesis Games is the best book in the series so far.
