    My favorite touch is how the rooms are stacked vertically in the ships so the gravity is provided by the acceleration. Also how pouring drinks always happens differently depending on the gravity and spin off the body they’re on. Man I love this show!

        I think the rest of the books happens after a hiatus of a thousand years, doesn’t it ? I doubt it’s even the same cast of characters, not sure i’m interested in that.

          There are nine books and they all (give or take a few) follow the same main cast. Extremely minor time-skips excluding the following. Spoilers:

          Tap for spoiler

          There aren’t any time skips besides for minor ones, except at the end of the series, after the destruction of the ring network and the death of holden, where there is a massive time-skip to the point one of the ring colonies develops sufficiently advanced interstellar travel, to the point they are able to visit earth and be greeted by the now-immortal Amos.

            Jesus Christ that sounds awesome. I have to confess i haven’t read the books, just seen the show. But immortal Amos feels like something i should know about ! I’ve downloaded the audiobooks recently and will probably be listening to that but that’s likely to take a long time to go through.
