Wanting to read the expanse series but struggled to read the mercy of gods.

Wanting to read the expanse series but struggled to read the mercy of gods.

As the title said - i am wanting to read the expanse books as I loved the series and also excited about the expanse game

But I struggled reading the mercy of gods and ended up putting it down after about the 2nd chapter. I wasn't a big fan of the writing style and descriptions.

Is the expanse series similar? If i didnt like the mercy of the gods will I struggle with the expanse? Or might not be an issue?

Thanks
