POV CHARACTERS IN THE EXPANSE BOOKS SERIES

Never heard of him before? Don’t feel bad: The Expanse is the only series credited to the novelist, who is actually two novelists. It’s also based on a best-selling book series written by James S.A. This is a story that is not afraid to think big, as it chronicles humanity’s first discovery of alien technology and the difficult growing pains that it causes. And my, are those consequences jaw-droppers. There are excellently written (and acted) characters and a huge and complex political ecosystem where every decision they make has unexpected consequences. Like Game of Thrones and other terrific shows in the genre, The Expanse is also bigger than the sum of its parts. But that complexity is what gives it such vivid life, and vastly deepens the rewatch value. Ever since I first gave the space opera a chance back during its first season, I have been utterly hooked. The Expanse is one of those shows that’s almost a little confusing on first contact - there are so many factions and characters that it can be hard to keep your run-of-the-mill Belters straight from your OPA thugs and your Martian marines. The reasons for the Game of Thrones comparison are pretty straightforward. Whenever someone gripes to me about how much they miss Game of Thrones, there’s always one question that shoots immediately out of my mouth, like a torpedo fired from a Martian warship, primed to destroy their misconception that no other show could be on par with HBO’s mega-hit.
