dudes... dudes... when they flew through that cloud of explosions did a 90 degree turn and unleashed hell on that ship and destroyed its engines I got the biggest spaceship boner. I love the Expanse. I'm going to start reading the books now, I've heard they're great!
I've read the first 3 books, and they are great! Much better than Game of Thrones...the books may seem long, but the plot moves and the action and character development is pretty good. I find I really can't put them down (whereas with Game of Thrones, I can't help myself from skipping ahead past boring stuff).
I'm impressed with how well the show condenses the material in a book, without really losing much. The writers are consultants to the series; it is good to see them make intelligent choices about how to present the book as a series.
In fact, I should go to Amazon and order up the next books...
