I just finished Leviathan Wakes which is the first book that the SyFy series The Expanse is based on.

The first book covers all of season 1 and most if not all of season 2 of the show. It explores the time between humanity conquering the solar system and humanity conquering the stars.

It has some of the world building of game of thrones and the military culture of battlestar galactic. It's half noir detective mystery and half space western like firefly.

It's a fun easy read that tries to be realistic with things like gravity and physics without devoting pages to explain the mechanics of a fusion engine.
