My apologies, I've added a spoiler lest I further upset TV watchers
I'm on a full reread of the entire book series and I've just finished book 6 and I'm just starting book 7 Persepolis Rising. Now I love the books I think they are brilliantly written I love the changing perspective and interlinking story elements. But there is something that gets my goat about the Belters "winning" the Trade Union is just too powerful and doesn't recognise the deliberate and massive crimes the Belters committed during the war. I like the idea of the niche for the Belters and they are deserving of a stable existence but the seeming handover of life and death to the least stable and most murderous group in the setting just feels very wrong. Luckily it's not a major part of the plot and Book 7 soon moves past it.
