ALL EXPANSE BOOKS IN ORDER SERIES
The plot and characters at first feel disconnected and random, but when the series develops, you realize they they fit incredibly well. Later more characters join the plot with the same level of importance like Bobbie the Martian Marine, Fred Johnson, Tycho station head project and one of the OPA leaders and a lot of other complex characters. The series follow several mayor characters across the solar system: Miller, a burn out cop searching for a missing girl in Ceres in the asteroid belt, Avasarala, a ruthless Earther politician who wants to stop a possible war between Earth and Mars, Holden, the 2nd officer in an Ice hauler who sees himself in a situation he never saw coming. The 5th chapter of 2nd season "Home" is one of the best chapters in the history of sci-fi without a doubt. The first season is a more paused space opera, but in the 2nd season the brakes are off, the stakes are higher and its being an even more awesome show.

I also realized that the first slowest episodes are much better in a re watch when you know the characters and what is going on. That can threw off a lot of people, but if you keep watching, the series shows everything one can hope in a Sci-fi and space opera series. The first couple of episodes are slower because there are a lot of world building to do and character to present. The Expanse is not an easy series to start.
