I’m currently reading the Wool omnibus by Hugh Howey. It’s pretty decent I’ve been making very rapid progress as it’s been too hot to sleep here recently now the summer has arrived.

I haven’t seen the Apple show, but maybe I’ll watch it in the future when I’ve finished all the books (I had Shift and Dust as well).

    I started watching the TV show, but didn’t really get into it. That said, I took me three tries to get into The Wire so I wouldn’t hold that against it.

    Maybe I’ll have better luck with the book series, will check it out.

      Okay I remembered re-watching the beginning of Expanse and it is seriously a slow burn start. I promise you the later part of the show is much more engaging.

      In fact I’d rather you skip ahead a little bit if it meant the difference between watching or not watching. Maybe some other communities have a suggested watch point with a recap explainer

      I couldn’t get into the expanse when I started it and put it off for months to years. Later I finally decided to give it another good try from the beginning after the praise it gets, and the praise is warranted. I felt like the detective subplot it starts with is a little ho hum, a mistake for new viewers.
