The expanse final season has started.

Imho the season was a waste.   I'm not saying it wasn't done well as it was, but space terrorists are boring and predictable as hell.  I wish they would have did a time jump past this war so we could have gotten a final season involving something more interesting.  This is the second time it has been cancelled so I figure getting those other three books on the screen is a long shot at this point.   
Ond:
I wouldn't write off the Expanse as done and dusted just yet. Its finished on Amazon with the expected 6th season ending. The time jump you mentioned was a season 7 event with a 30 year leap forward. The sets, and infrastructure for the show are staying put for the time being, there may be a movie/s or Netflix pick-up or other.

I think they are out of books though.

From what I can tell, the show stops at book 6 or 7 and there are 9 books total.

I read they covered all the books on one of those nerd fanboy sites.
though now that i think about it the same site had an article about someone suiting up for a superhero show and it was just an actor someone had photoshopped a costume onto.
so probably should of gone to the next link in my google search about season 7.

I want to know what the martians did with the proto molecule.
I want to see what happens to the creepy undead children.

Yep.  At least Amazon didn't ruin it.  It could have gone the way of The Man in High Castle.  :lol

Total necro-post here, but, ehhhh... don't care

I wanted to know the answers to all this shiz too, so I actually started reading the books a couple of months back. I'm just slightly over halfway through book 5 at the moment and I really can't wait to get into totally uncharted waters with books 7-9.

Despite having watched all 6 series from start to finish (twice - not something I do often), I'm absolutely loving the books. The ultimate destination the books end up at is more-or-less the same as the individual seasons (although some of them sort of blend into each other a bit), but sometimes the journey to get to that destination is slightly different. Some characters are very different too, with throwaway characters in the books having much bigger arcs in the show and vice-versa. Drummer for example, has only just been introduced in book 5. Her arc from Seasons 2 3 and 4 is shared between a couple of different characters. Bull from Season 5 has an awesome hero arc in an earlier book. Ashford is a far more unsympathetic character in the books than the series, where he actually went on to become a genuinely cool character. Book Ashford is a bit of knob. Havelock gets a far bigger arc in the books.

Anyway, what I'm basically saying is, if you loved the show, you should definitely give the books a try. They're like really easy reading hard sci-fi.
