James S.A. Corey's Cibola Burn
I liked this one a lot more than the third one—it mainly involves Holden being sent to mediate between two groups of colonists on a new planet, and I just found the plot and most of the characters more engaging (two of the POV characters are minor characters from earlier books, on opposite sides of the conflict). I say “most of” the characters because the main villain is very one note and at a certain point I was wishing someone would shoot him so I didn’t have to read any more of his nonsense. On the plus side, I thought Naomi was way better developed in this one (maybe because we're seeing her through eyes that aren't Holden's?). Looking forward to the next one. A-.
