Done reading this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28335699-leviathan-falls
Well, this ends up The Expanse series, at least for now, it's for sure my favorite series ever, but a lot because of the TV adaptation, I also finished the Video Game, and now there's one on the way that I will play for sure.
About the 9th book, well, I can agree with one of the negative (big) comments about it, this was the book that took most of the time to finish it, for several reasons, but mostly because of what is described on that comment, about 20% of the book and the story doesn't advance at all, it's all about the "new" characters arch that aren't captivating enough for me. About the ending, I wonder if it would be so different if they just let Duarte do what he was doing.
Oh right! I don't think I mentioned it here (unless u check my #weeknotes) but I finally started #reading #NemesisGames, book 5 of #TheExpanse
I just finished chapter 8! It's been good so far, loving the new perspectives from the characters here.

@MagentaRocks @bookstodon Publication order works, or you can read them in chronological order in their correct spots in between the novels, which is similar. Wikipedia has a list with numbers showing where they fit relative to the novels: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Expanse_(novel_series)#Short_stories_and_novellas #TheExpanse

Does anyone have a 'best order to read' The Expanse book series and novellas?
I have the list of all in publication order. I'm wondering how best to mix in the novellas with the novels.
I did catch a note the author recommends reading in publication order, so that is cool. I just wanted to see if there were other reading order recommendations.
Thanks and much appreciated!
The two actors whose voices absolutely command my attention the *instant* I hear them.

Oooh, a new #TheExpanse game from Owlcat!
If you're a fan of the books by James S. A. Corey - #TheExpanse series of books, #scifi in general or of the TV series of the same name then you'll be excited for the game that was announced
The Expanse: Osiris Reborn looks amazing, made by Owlcat Games (π¬π―π°πΈπ― π§π°π³ π΅π©π¦πͺπ³ π€ππππ΄) you know it's got a high chance of being great - choice-based narrative and relationships? Yes plz!
+ it all gives me a strong Mass Effect vibe, which is only a good thing

@bigzaphod Love #TheExpanse π π
I'm looking forward to reading the books, I want to learn more about the world.
James S.A. Corey's 'Cibola Burn' is another gripping, fast-paced entry in their SF-adventure 'Expanse' series. I enjoyed it enormously.

You know, I hate Pet Sematary and all of that, but theres a #theExpanse plotline in Strange Dogs that hits all the same notes and I kinda love it. It builds up so much in the books. Sometimes in the TV show because they only do the Pet Sematary plot it feels like a relief because in the books its actually so much worse. @bookstodon #amReading #Expanse
Thatβs the thing about autocracy. It looks pretty decent while it still looks pretty decent. Survivable, anyway. And it keeps looking like that right up until it doesn't. Thatβs how you find out it's too late.

I bought Green Ronin's The Expanse RPG. You can get a FREE quick start rules version of it

I like the Dragon Age, Fantasy AGE systems. I do think they suffer a little bit from not having the vast trove of monsters, magic items and lore that D&D has.
Curious to see how the system works for a sci-fi rpg.
I have only skimmed the rules so far, but I applaud the writers for getting the first page of the GMs section right.
