The complete Expanse series. Nine novels & One short story collection.

“Why another Expanse torrent?” I hear the Mods asking, so let me explain why this torrent isn’t just another duplicate.

Jefferson Mays has recorded the first three books twice and both versions are available from Audible UK. Most, if not all the torrents here are the first versions that came out.

I can’t say for sure for the others, but the rerecording of the first book, ‘Leviathan Wakes’ has substantially better sound quality than the original, which frankly sounded poor. The first three novels are all the new versions.

I made adjustments to the audio for every book except ‘Persepolis Rising’. All the other books had been through a rather aggressive high-pass filter which left them sounding a bit thin and reedy. I found them fatiguing to listen to for more than a short while & these are long books.

I have boosted the bass for all the effected books, just enough to add some warmth (I’m not trying to turn Jefferson Mays into Barry White).

I have also used AI to remove the annoying music from seven of the books & applied a little noise reduction to two of them.

All books with labelled chapters.

‘Persepolis Rising’ is a direct download 128kbps AAC M4B

Everything else was from the new USAC encodes. After processing I saved as FDK VBR5 AAC M4B for maximum quality without ballooning the file size – bitrates average around 135kbps

…

Humanity has colonized the solar system—Mars, the Moon, the Asteroid Belt and beyond—but the stars are still out of our reach.

Jim Holden is XO of an ice miner making runs from the rings of Saturn to the mining stations of the Belt. When he and his crew stumble upon a derelict ship, the Scopuli, they find themselves in possession of a secret they never wanted. A secret that someone is willing to kill for—and kill on a scale unfathomable to Jim and his crew. War is brewing in the system unless he can find out who left the ship and why.

Detective Miller is looking for a girl. One girl in a system of billions, but her parents have money and money talks. When the trail leads him to the Scopuli and rebel sympathizer Holden, he realizes that this girl may be the key to everything.

Holden and Miller must thread the needle between the Earth government, the Outer Planet revolutionaries, and secretive corporations—and the odds are against them. But out in the Belt, the rules are different, and one small ship can change the fate of the universe.​
