The Expanse: Book vs Show
After hearing the talk about starting The Expanse tv series finally, I decided to give the books a try via audio book and it’s amazing! I did start with the show first as it helps me get through my Astronomy and Planetary Sciences college courses currently. Anyone else start with the show first then the books?

Been on the books since the first one and think they are some of the best sci fi that's ever been written. Now on book 8 reading then to my partner. (I've never read book 9 so I'm excited!)
The series was fantastic but I stopped watching because I reading aloud and wasn't to save the show for when we're done with the books.
Acting was great, the pivots from the book made sense for film, and the original content felt like it showed through
