Amazonian Beauty | |
| Caliban's War / int_2a3e0069 | comment |
Amazonian Beauty: Bobbie Draper is described as more than two meters tall (approx 6'7"), and as someone that "couldn't be more than thirty and looked like a comic book illustration, complete with muscles on her muscles". Alex seems very smitten with her, and Bobbie appears to know that she attracts the look of lovers of big, solid women, a development she doesn't seem to like much. | |

Wrong Assumption | |
| Caliban's War / int_38072b53 | comment |
Wrong Assumption: After Holden realizes the protomolecule was involved in the events on Ganymede, he immediately leaps to the conclusion that Fred Johnson must be behind it, as he had given him the last sample of the stuff for safekeeping. He ends up angrily confronting Fred, who, understandably upset at being accused of atrocities he had nothing to do with, promptly fires him. (It's somewhat justified by the fact that the alternative — that there is more protomolecule out there in God-knows-whose hands — is simply too horrifying for Holden to contemplate. Unfortunately, it's also correct.) | |

| Caliban's War / int_5989e3b6 | comment |
Enemy Mine: The UN and Mars marines on Ganymede are in a tense standoff when one of the monsters attacks the UN patrol. Bobbie and her patrol immediately attempt to reinforce them, but are themselves wiped out. Unfortunately Bobbie's radio is damaged in the fight, and she's unable to tell her superiors or the ships in orbit about the changed situation on the ground. | |

| Caliban's War / int_60f0d6e0 | comment |
Convenient Terminal Illness: When Holden boards the protomolecule-infested Agatha King, he meets a survivor named Lawson. Half a chapter later, Lawson gets exposed to the protomolecule, so he volunteers to stay behind and blow the reactor while Holden escapes. | |

Cliffhanger: As if the mass of protomolecule on Venus shooting off into space as a gigantic tendril to become who knows what isn't enough, the last moment of the book is a previously thought-to-be dead character showing up on the Roci to give Holden a cryptic "we need to talk." | |

Dramatic Gun Cock: Deconstructed when Prax accidentally turns a Mexican Standoff into a Blast Out by cocking his gun, which he just thought was the appropriate thing to do in the situation from what he'd seen in movies. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| Caliban's War / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: Bobbie's suit gun fires 2 mm rounds at "more than a thousand meters per second", which is treated as something awesomely powerful and being able to penetrate an entire ship. In reality, it's actually firing tiny bullets at a normal rifle velocity - the rounds would have roughly an order of magnitude lower momentum and kinetic energy than a modern assault rifle's. | |
