The Expanse - Lemmy.World

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.

Just starting book 9; it really keeps the quality high all the way. I’m more of a fantasy fan myself, but lately I’ve been finding a lot more sci-fi that is really high quality (this, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Vernor Vinge) than fantasy. The last fantasy book I read was The Scar by China Mieville (fairly steampunky actually) which was decent but not on their level, and before that some kinda meh book by Laurell K Hamilton.

I wouldn’t really call it “hard magic” though.

Oh I’ll look into all of those, thank you!
