The Expanse is a sprawling, ambitious and remarkably human science fiction series that starts with spaceships, political intrigue and alien technology before expanding into something considerably bigger. Across nine books, James S. A. Corey explores inequality, colonialism, revolution, authoritarianism, corporate power, identity and humanity’s rather unfortunate tendency to turn every discovery into a political or military opportunity. Yet beneath all the grand ideas, the heart of the series remains its characters, particularly the crew of the Rocinante. With its mixture of action, humour, politics and genuine emotional weight, The Expanse became a series I was thoroughly invested in from beginning to end.
