10 Things You Didn't Know About The Expanse
2. The People Responsible
The original writer of the series, James S. A. Corey, is actually two writers in a trench-coat trying to sneak into Amazon Prime's offices. Well, perhaps it isn't quite like that, but this is certainly the spirit of a pen-name.
The two individuals that make up this suspiciously tall figure are one Daniel JAMES Abraham and Ty COREY Franck (see what they did there?), who began collaboratively writing the first book to be published in 2011.
Each one had a background in writing; Abraham having penned a fantasy series under another pseudonym (M. L. N. Hanover) as well as several other fictions and comic books, and Franck having been the assistant to George R. R. Martin during his acclaimed A Song of Ice and Fire series.
When we consider how the last few Seasons of Game of Thrones turned out, and that The Expanse is quickly catching up with its source material, we should be thankful that four hands write faster than two.
