While most of Memory's Legion is narrated by Jefferson Mays, the author's note portions are narrated by Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck.

Summary of books edit

The Expanse is set in a future in which humanity has colonized much of the Solar System, but does not have interstellar travel. The G-force exerted during acceleration when travelling across the Solar System is debilitating without the use of special drugs. In the asteroid belt and beyond, tensions are rising between Earth's United Nations, Mars, and the outer planets, often represented by the Outer Planets Alliance.[19] The residents of the outer planets have developed a creole language due to their physical isolation from Earth and Mars, with heavy influences from German and Chinese. The series initially takes place in the Solar System, using many real locations such as Ceres and Eros in the asteroid belt, several moons of Jupiter, with Ganymede and Europa taking center stage in several major plot-points, and small science bases as far out as Phoebe around Saturn and Titania around Uranus, as well as well-established domed and underground settlements on Mars and the Moon, referred to as Luna.[19][20]

The authors have suggested that The Expanse might well take place in the future of Andy Weir's novel The Martian.[21] In support of this, they created a ship named the Mark Watney after the titular Martian. However, Andy Weir has publicly clarified that the reference was solely a fun reference.[22]

As the series progresses, humanity gains access to thousands of new worlds by use of the ring network, an artificially sustained Einstein-Rosen bridge or wormhole, created by a long-dead alien civilization. The ring in our solar system is two AU from the orbit of Uranus. Passing through it leads to a hub of starless space approximately one million kilometers across, with more than 1,300 other rings, each with a star system on the other side. In the center of the hub, which is also referred to as the "slow zone" after the second novel, a highly defended alien space station controls the gates and can also set instantaneous speed limits on objects inside the hub as a means of defense.[23]

Inspiration and writing edit

Development edit

Ty Franck began developing the world of The Expanse initially as the setting for a MMORPG and, after a number of years, for a tabletop roleplaying game. Daniel Abraham, who had authored a number of novels on his own, suggested, given the depth of the setting, that it could serve for the basis for a series of novels, noting: "People who write books don't do this much research."[24]

The authors have stated that the series gets some of its inspirations from Fred Pohl's Gateway and the other Heechee books.[25] It has also been observed that there are similarities in the political and social setting of the series to Alfred Bester's classic science fiction novel The Stars My Destination.[26][27] Ty Franck has also stated Ridley Scott's Alien as having "the single largest influence on The Expanse."[28]

Writing process edit

Franck writes all the Holden, Bobbie, and Anna chapters, while Abraham writes the Miller, Melba, Avasarala, Bull, and Prax chapters.[29] The writers meet weekly to discuss upcoming chapters and swap completed chapters for the other to edit.[24]

Narrative structure edit

The novels are written in third-person limited. Each chapter is told from the point of view of a character central to the story, while the prologue and epilogue are told by a recurring character or a one-off viewpoint. Most of the books employ four point-of-view characters (plus the prologue and epilogue viewpoints). Leviathan Wakes features two, Babylon's Ashes features sixteen, Persepolis Rising features eight, and Tiamat's Wrath features five. James Holden is the only character to be used as a viewpoint character in all nine novels.

Reception edit

Critical response edit

The series overall has been well received. Caliban's War was praised by both Wired.com's Geek Dad and Publishers Weekly. GeekDad cited the book's "believable human personalities and technology that is easily recognizable" as a highlight.[30][31] Publishers Weekly gave Abaddon's Gate a starred review saying "series fans will find this installment the best yet."[32] The same publication gave Cibola Burn a starred review and called it "splendid" and it "blends adventure with uncommon decency."[33] Leviathan Falls won the 2022 Dragon Award for Best Science Fiction Novel.[34] The Expanse won the 2020 Hugo Award for Best Series.[35]

Adaptations edit

Television series edit

The American television channel Syfy announced a straight-to-series commitment to a television adaptation of The Expanse in April 2014, ordering the production of ten hour-long episodes for a first season[60] which premiered in December 2015. As of 2022 six seasons consisting of a total of 62 episodes have been produced, with the final episode of each season sharing its name with the respective book. The series stars Thomas Jane as Josephus Miller and Steven Strait as Jim Holden. As for the other crew of the Rocinante, Dominique Tipper was cast as Naomi Nagata, Cas Anvar as Alex Kamal, and Wes Chatham as Amos Burton. The other major cast members are Shohreh Aghdashloo as Chrisjen Avasarala, Chad Coleman as Fred Johnson, and Florence Faivre as Julie Mao. In season 2, Frankie Adams joined the cast as Bobbie Draper.

Comics edit

Four digital comics based on the books and tying into the television series were published by ComiXology. The comics were written by James S. A. Corey, Hallie Lambert and Georgia Lee and illustrated by Huang Danlan, Triona Farrell, Juan Useche and Rahzzah. The Expanse: Origins reveals the untold backstories of the crew members of the Rocinante before the start of the series. All four comics were also released in print as a compilation titled The Expanse Vol. 1: Origins by BOOM! Studios, which also featured a new story about Detective Miller.

A second series was also published by Boom and written by James S.A. Corey and Corinna Bechko, and illustrated by Alejandro Aragon, Francesco Segala and Ed Dukeshire. To date 4 issues have been published.

In January 2023, it was announced that the continuation of the TV-series, set between Babylon's Ashes and Persepolis Rising, would be adapted into a 12-issue comic book series, The Expanse: Dragon Tooth.[65][66]

Board game edit

An Expanse board game, designed by Geoff Engelstein and published by WizKids, was released in October 2017.[67] The authors of the book series collaborated with Engelstein on its development.[68] The game focuses on politics, conquest and intrigue similar to the board game Twilight Struggle, although with a shorter playing time. Players represent Earth's UN forces, the military of Mars, the O.P.A., and Protogen Inc, each struggling to become the dominant power in the Solar System. They use cards and action points to move and place Fleets and expand their Influence in contested areas. The cards represent characters and events from the universe of The Expanse, each bearing key images from the show. Each character has special abilities that must be correctly exploited in order to gain the upper hand in the struggle for control.[69]

The Expanse: Doors & Corners Expansion was announced for release by WizKids in February 2019. It contains five new modules that can be used independently or in any combination together with the base game.[70]

Roleplaying game edit

The Expanse Roleplaying Game uses the AGE (Adventure Game Engine) system designed by Chris Pramas. The core rulebook and Gamemaster's Kit launched on Kickstarter[71] in July 2018 and gathered over $400,000 from their campaign. The book was written by game designer Steve Kenson and is published by Pramas' company Green Ronin Publishing.[72] The game allows players to create their own character of the various Solar System factions and adventure through the Solar System and beyond at the various settings or even on their own ships. It includes a bonus short story by James S. A. Corey titled "The Last Flight of the Cassandra".[73]
