Heart of the Tempest
A warship named in the final third of The Expanse, entering in Persepolis Rising.
The Heart of the Tempest is the name of a warship in The Expanse, and the ship belongs to the series' final third, entering the story in Persepolis Rising, the seventh novel. The fleets of the early books are those of a single divided Solar System: Earth's United Nations Navy, the Martian Congressional Republic Navy, and the improvised armed ships of the Belt, with James Holden and the crew of the Rocinante moving among all three. The Heart of the Tempest is no part of that world. Whose ship she is, what she is built to do, and what follows in her wake are part of the story Persepolis Rising begins, deep in the series, and the name is best treated as a marker pointing there.
