“We gotta talk” The second book of the Expanse series, which by the way has been adapted into a well made tv sci-fi show(The Expanse) is pretty different from the first. Originally meant to be a mmorpg game developed by a chinese video game producer, it never got the greenlight so the authors decided to publish what they had written as books. Originally the game was meant to have three factions which you can guess if you’ve read the first book. It was an overly ambitious game that could not be made in 2004. Ty Frank is the video game geek, while Daniel Abraham is the more traditional writer. Thus the Universe encompassing Earth, Mars and the belt got it’s unlikely start. Read more only if you've read the first book.
