Pleasantly Surprised

I've watched The Expanse through in its entirety some four times now, and seen parts of it even more than that. I think it's far and away the best sci-fi ever on the small screen. Good story, good writing, good characters, and the whole thing is extremely well executed, production-wise.

But I'd never read the books.

Therefore I felt like I was maybe setting myself up for disappointment when I finally ordered Leviathan Wakes on Kindle the other day.

It turns out that I needn't have worried. This is one of the rare incidences of the book being every bit as good a book as the movie is a movie. Polished it off fairly quickly and now I'm a few chapters into Caliban's War.
