I just finished book 6 of the expanse. I live this series so much! I love great hard magic systems which this is, and the author is a bit Frederick Backman esk with how well his writing gets me to feel the emotions and moments of the characters.

I've tried to watch the TV show and quit after the first season. I was just so confused. Once I finish the books later this year I'm gonna watch the series to the end of it.

Never have I been so excited to read. This series is top tier!

    It really is! After I'm done with it I'm going to see what else the author has written and see if it's this good.

    James SA Corey (which is actually a pseudonym for two individuals) got their start with the expanse series, so there isn't much beyond that yet. There are a few novellas in the expanse universe so check those out for sure, and then they released the first book in a new series in 2024 called "The Mercy of Gods". It is quite good! Very different, but quite good. It reminds me quite a bit of some of Adrian Tchaikovsky's stuff so if you like his work you'll definitely enjoy it.
