I've been reading through the books after watching the first three seasons, and it's pretty cool how all the titles of the main books are in some vague way an allegory for the books plot, and then I get to Strange Dogs, and it's about some... dogs that are strange?  To be fair Drive is about the Epstein Drive and The Butcher of Anderson Station is about that as well, I just didn't expect this one to be so on the nose. Good book though, I'm fully ready to plough through the rest of the series (then wait for the ones that aren't out yet) to figure out just what the gently caress happened to poor lil Xan.

PriorMarcus posted:Interestingly Thomas Jane has just posted on twitter that he's heading off to start work on The Expanse Season 5 today. Defiance Industries posted:That makes me think that he will show back up in Book 9. It occurred to me last night that since the Investigator was part of the protomolecule culture contained in the sample that was used to create all those Laconia experiments. So anything made from that, like Amos, could be a new way for him to manifest. So the scene at the end of Book 4 could be a misdirection. Turns out he's directing an episode of season 5. So maybe the detective wont actually return? https://twitter.com/TheExpanseWR/status/1195413519828566017

Maybe we'll get 7-9 in 30 years when the actors have aged up.

I can't believe the admiral didn't understand the ramifications of light speed changing for 23 minutes. Haha what an idiot. It's so obvious what that means. One of you should explain it so I know you all know.

Real sad now that the series is over. Also feels kinda weird that both the last book and last novella ended the same way. Holden and Filip both did what they saw as necessary without asking anyone else. Holden injected himself and shut down the whole slow zone without consulting anyone, and Filip killed Jandro because he saw his own father in the guy. When Filip realized he was being exiled and was talking to just Nami I half expected him to explain who he was and why it was so important to him to stop Jandro before he became Marco. Just as some kind of finally coming to terms that he is Filip, son of Marco, out loud.
