      I’ll tell you the same thing my buddy (who originally recommended the series) told me when I was about that far in:

      “you’re almost to the part where it starts to get interesting!”

      I can’t explain how much that motivated/excited me to keep reading. he was not wrong.

        I’ll preface my comment with: I love the series and it’s probably my favorite scifi series of all time. I recommend it any time I hear someone even contemplating reading it.

        I think book 4 is the worst of the series and it’s still good. The story progresses really well, I love the planet they are on, most of the characters are good. That said, I hate the chapters from Elvis’s perspective. I don’t like book 4 Elvi, but I like her chapters later in the series and I like show Elvi.

        It really is where the series picks up and seriously takes off. I could talk Expanse all day, I love it so much. It’s right up there with Star Trek in my book :)
