Hi! Awesome of you to do an AMA. I’ve loved The Expanse from the beginning and as the series progressed it just grew to be a consistent source of joy in my life. It also introduced me to Daniel’s other work and allowed him to take a spot as one of my favourite authors of all time.

Questions! 1) I’ve read before that The Expanse was written as 3 duologies and a trilogy and that you wrote each book in a different sub-genre (noir/horror, mil-sci fi, political thriller, etc). Were there specific world events from the present say or history that informed certain sequences or events in the books?

2) What are your thoughts on an adaptation of the last 3 books of the Expanse? Would you want to see that happen, or are you happy with how the show leaves off?

3) What changes that were made in the show had you feeling like you wished you’d done that? (I suspect you’ll get this one a bunch!)

4) What can you share about your future project(s)? And do you think you’d jointly tackle another Star Wars book?

Have an awesome day!
