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 look forward to being obsessed with the show as well.

And I'll just leave this here if you're a gamer: https://youtu.be/pIQifuOTTe8

Oh I’m super aware of and excited for that game, but thank you for linking the trailer, I watched it all the way through even though I’ve already watched it 50 times lol

I’m not a big gamer, but I do have specific games I get obsessed with and that will definitely be one of them.

Lol I watched it again too!

And if it's half as good as it looks I'll play it though multiple times. Hopefully we get good ship to ship gameplay as well. It's down in the cut scene but I want to shoot down some torpedoes with my rail guns before raiding the station myself!

How have I missed this?! The algorithms have let me down, so thank you kind internet stranger!

I'll also add Telltale Heart's "The Expanse" game. It's more a multipath interactive movie. Warning though: it's... not fun in the standard sense. The game centers on Drummer, which is awesome. So many gut-wrenching emotional hits in that game, I keep having to put it down and think about it.

It's in your line of sight now, and that's what's important.
