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.

I think this series follows the characters faithfully, but makes explicit things in their pasts that we knew were there. By making it so clear, the reader loses some inferential power.

Para los adictos que estamos esperando la octava entrega de la saga este tebeo se aparece como una especie de metadona en nuestra adicción. No es lo mismo que los libros, me digo, pero algo tendrá. Pues no. No sirve como sustituto. Son cinco historias, una para cada personaje (Holden, Nagata, Kamal, Amos y el detective Miller), que pretenden dar un vistrazo sobre sus vidas antes de Ceres y el Rocinante. Pero la verdad es que aportan poco. La de Kamal, la de Miller, pueden ser interesantes. Las de Holden y Nagata y, sobre todo, la de Amos, son aburridas y no me dicen nada. En resumen, uyna lectura innecesaria, incluso para fans de la saga.

This one was also surprisingly good, after I did not like the Amos one as much. But Alex’s story is sad too, so yeah… there’s that…

Ehh, It was okay. I was hoping for something much more interesting in Alex's past.
