The Expanse recap

The Expanse recap summarises seasons 1-4 in 17:36

Posted Filed under

Amazon Prime has released an Expanse recap trailer and it runs at a huge 17 minutes 36 seconds!

While we wait for the return of The Expanse, Amazon Prime has let a new trailer loose on the world. We say trailer; we actually mean a massive Expanse recap running at over 17 minutes. This requires serious attention, but will remind you of the series so far, or help onboard new fans looking to find out just what The Expanse is about. The video has been produced by AltShiftX, whose YouTube channel is also well worth taking a look at. If you’re a complete newbie to the show, The Expanse is a series of science fiction novels by James S. A. Corey, the joint pen name of authors Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. Google’s helpful summary of the show is:

Hundreds of years in the future, things are different than what we are used to after humans have colonized the solar system and Mars has become an independent military power. Rising tensions between Earth and Mars have put them on the brink of war. Against this backdrop, a hardened detective and a rogue ship’s captain come together to investigate the case of a missing young woman. The investigation leads them on a race across the solar system that could expose the greatest conspiracy in human history.

Of course if you need something longer to watch while you wrap presents, you could just start a complete rewatch on Prime starting with Season 1! The recap trailer is available here.
