    I’d definitely give it a try! The concept is strong enough to be that I’d even consider a full reboot, although my dream is another soft reboot where the canon is left intact and we just follow a new set of main characters, and our old favourites might pop up occasionally. Having seen Amazon do great stuff with the tail end of The Expanse I think they have the chops to make it work.

      tail end of The Expanse

      What? They actually finished it?!

      googles

      Oh. Season 6. That leaves out an entire 1/3 of the story from the books :(

      I’d love to watch the show, but I can’t bear the thought of the story being that unfinished in the TV adaptation :(

        Sorry to get you excited. If it’s any help, they do absolutely leave it open to return after the book time skip, they included a load of stuff that only makes sense in context of the last books.

          I mean the last third of the series is a time skip, so they absolutely could come back in a few years and finish it off.

          Heh, thanks. I have heard good things about the show. I should probably pick it up and start watching at some point. I just really hate that sense of “unfinished story”.
