No, they have not said there will only be three, so far there is no announcement of a fourth and there is a whole lot more yet to come from the books already published and there is a new book on the horizon too smile

Unless of course they really compress the story even more than they have done already.

@Falstar: Reading the comments on that page you linked someone made the comment that you should not have to read the books to make sense of the story, I must admit that having read the books and knowing what has/is going to happen makes a big difference, you can see the relationships between what is happening in one place and how it is going to affect what is going on elsewhere.

The TV series sometimes is just like taking a small snapshot of the complexity of what happened in that chapter of the books, also the tv series is taking parts of the spin-off novellas and inserting them into the series to pad out the background of some of the players in the series which was only ever hinted at in the main arc of the book series.

Going to leave us with another cliff hanger season finale I am sure of. All the more reason to look for season 3.

Greetings fellow nerds. I have always loved Adam Savage "Behind the Scenes" type videos. He has a whole "Tested" series for "The Expanse"

Was the best season Finale I have ever seen. PERFECT. Going to lead us to another great season 3 and our new sensation of the protomoticule.

Well it didn't end where I thought it would, lots more drama to come in season 3

Personally I thought they dragged out those scenes a little, they were well played with lots of tension and it was well done, but I was getting to the point of saying "hurry up and get on to the next bit" I'm getting impatient for the next big reveal biggrin

Just finished this last night and yeah,it was as expected,awesome. I really didn't like Gunny at first but she grew on me. I was expecting to see a little more of Adam Savage but the bits he did were good.

I hope season 3 continues like this.

Yeah, they did a very good job with the assault on the space station. It's nice to finally see spaceships taking advantage of the ability to point in a direction other than that in which they're traveling. Now I REALLY wish someone would pick up "On Basilisk Station" and start an Honorverse series!

I've gone through 4 of the books so far. Not only are the books really good, but they make me REALLY appreciate the effort put into the writing on the show. If anything the show fleshes out things even more and is much better about introducing characters and behind the scenes situations.
It's not often that a book series and movie/show are both so good together.
The show's actors NAIL the accents too.
Can't wait for season 3!

The next book comes out on Dec 6, IIRC. The action in “Leviathan Wakes” was as good as any I’ve read, even more so because it’s all done under Newton’s laws. The sequels showed that they could write an imaginative story, featuring characters who had real weaknesses and who screwed up from time to time.

Yeah the books are good, I had read them before the series came out, while the series does not stick rigidly to the story line in the books the two really do compliment each other and all the better for it. I wonder how far we will get in the 3rd season a lot has happened in the story line in the books after the tv season 2 finished. Really quite hyped for seeing season 3 next year.

The spinoff novelettes provide a good bit of extra depth to the characters and their backgrounds as well as the universe they are set in and are well worth a read.

Was just reading that they have wrapped shooting of season 3 and there are a couple of teaser trailers out for it too.

http://www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/the-...-trailer-release-date-cast-and-more-news

Although the trailers are regional locked so us lowly Europeans cannot see them without resorting to disguising our IP addresses mad

Edit: it's only season 1&2 footage in the trailers frown
