I finished the first six of The Expanse recently. Had a buddy suggest that the next three can kind of stand alone from the first six, and with the direction book six and the series went, I decided to put the rest on hold.
I had previously read the first three books in The First Law series by Joe Abercrombie, and I was craving his style a bit, so I'm on to Best Served Cold, and it's exactly how I expected it to be. So it's not new and exciting, but the style is very much the same as the first three, the story is interesting, and while it feels a bit like a rehashing, I'm cool with it.
