A nice, brief anthology of the backgrounds of the major characters in “The Expanse” series, but takes a bit too many liberties to stand on its own.

comics about Naomi, Holden, Amos, Alex, and Miller -- years before the TV show and books.

The stories range from mediocre, Holden, to quite good, Amos, yet the art is just really poor. The weird thing is that Danlan seems like a capable artist but it's as if the the whole book just went from pencils to colour seperations without any inking. It makes for these bizarrely thin and lifeless sketches that jar you out of the narrative.

I am been meaning to read these *forever.*

I love that there's so much background in this collection. Seeing where Alex choices came about with his family, leading to the Roci. Seeing how Holden's moral made for a thorny path in the military. Seeing Amos's past even more than his novella, and FINALLY my dreams were answered with getting to see how Naomi and Amos first met/worked into the relationship they are in now.
