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.

What a great background story - Naomi and Amos's friendship is one of the best things in The Expanse and it warmed my heart to see how they first met and establish that special bond.
PS: This is much better than the Holden one.

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.

So, I’m not sure if I’m supposed to read this in order but this is book 2… I’ll find out later whenever I can get book 1 from the library. This was super short and was just ok. I don’t have much else to say about it.

This is a great little backstory for The Expanse tv series involving Naomi hiring Amos as a mechanic for the Canterbury. The story hints heavily toward additional background yet to be revealed for both Naomi and Amos. It has some terrific moments that really add to the overall development of these characters. I think it's a massive improvement compared to the first issue which focused on Holden, although the artwork is still just.. okay.
