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.

I've seen the show but not read the books. Would you say the novellas stand alone or would you need to have book context?. And what about no context?

    Having seen the show should give you most of the context you need for the novellas, though some characters will be different.

    No context might be difficult, but I think they catch you up on the broader concepts as they come up.
