My favorite of the series. All the elements come together in a terrific space opera. Great characters, twists and turns, complex plot, and of course terrific world building.

kwmg40 My own favourite is Nemesis Games, but TBH, every book in this series is excellent. 3w

I listened to the audiobook and it was FANTASTIC. I‘m really annoyed actually as my library has book 4 on audio but not book 3, and these books are whoppers so require a certain amount of commitment to read on paper. Loved the new characters that were introduced here and the way the plot from book 1 continues but also morphs into more. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Back in January I started the 5th installment in #TheExpanse series and found this. (I'm reading book 6 now).

I‘m enjoying this series a lot, but the constant references to this character‘s size (once she was described as having a “massive head”) are irritating and a bit sexist. The author doesn‘t do this with any other character, but he makes this woman sound like she‘s 7 ft tall and built like a linebacker.

Man, this irritates me! These are all I have of the series so far, so I don‘t know what the rest look like.

mcctrish My husband LOVES this series, now I need to go look at his 8mo
AlaMich @mcctrish I mean, I think they‘re the same editions, but maybe my book 3 is a later printing or something. I have no clue. 8mo
shortsarahrose It looks like maybe book 3 is a mass market paperback while the other two are trade paperbacks? 8mo

AlaMich @shortsarahrose It definitely looks that way, but don‘t MM versions usually have different covers? These are otherwise identical 8mo
shortsarahrose Not always. I think it‘s really just the size that has to be different. 8mo
Ruthiella Two are trade paperbacks and one is a mass market paperback. They are sized differently. You should be able to find book three in the right size if you want them to match. (edited) 8mo
AlaMich @Ruthiella I suppose I‘m not annoyed enough to hunt for one, but thank you. 😊 8mo
Centique I have a few sets like this! I keep my eye out for the trade paperback versions in the second hand shops so i can swop out the littlies eventually 😂😂 8mo
AlaMich @Centique That‘s what I should do. I ordered all three used from AbeBooks, and it‘s very hard to tell exactly what you‘re ordering on their site. (edited) 8mo
Centique @AlaMich yes! I bet it is. I managed to do it on Book Depository and they even tell you the measurements 😂😂 I ordered a classic in hardback and thought it was a great price. When it turned up it was a miniature and only about 10cms high! 😂😂 8mo
AlaMich @Centique Well, easy to carry around I guess! 😂 8mo
Serenity_34 I have the whole series, I got them all second hand and wasn't picky about the sizing when I was buying them so it's not a perfectly matched collection. In my collection 1 and 2 are tall, 3-8 are short, 9 is tall. 😅 6mo
AlaMich @Serenity_34 It‘s just that I can‘t NOT notice it every time I look at them and I get irritated every time. It‘s so silly of me! 6mo

Just as compelling as the first time I read it. I did find the differences between the TV version and the book interesting. The changes made sense, especially Drummer for Bull. Great series, great book.

A reread of book 2 in the Expanse, one of my favourite sci-fi series. I love this installment for its unlikely friendships: Amos/Prax and Bobbie/Avasarala. The TV adaptation of this novel is even better!

This is the 5th and final book I finished for the #MarvellousMarch readathon. Thanks to @Andrew65 for hosting!
