Am appalled that Bobby was the wedge into her control of the Roci, but then Holden has always been easily swayed. Can only hope Bobby is on some deep entryist kick and her natural shit detector will out, but the Martian turn to caricature is bothering me too - a shift fron cod Stalinism to national socialist with a uniform fetish (not even your mother's bracelet). Anyway, thanks heaps for all this. Id not realised until Alex suddenly quit that 10 was the finale.

I first thought Amos was a Belter because of his strong connection with Naomi. unemployed negativityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01251742512967070290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31783628.post-3919138719072030732018-07-19T17:29:46.881-04:002018-07-19T17:29:46.881-04:00Thoroughly enjoyed your thoughts... personal, inte...Thoroughly enjoyed your thoughts... personal, intelligent, and readable. Thanks for sharing. One correction... the crew of the Roci is actually 2 Earthers, 1 Martian, and 1 Belter. Amos is from Baltimore, although his background fits him more into the Belter paradigm than the Earther paradigm as you defined them. Really enjoyed the read though and will look forward to more in the future. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.jeff santmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09135205239544901362noreply@blogger.com
