The Expanse is one of the very few series that did justice to the source material.

I don't know that the show was cancelled. It ended at a natural point in the books, the subsequent books had a major time skip, and would have required an entirely new cast and practically no continuation of the old plotline. It would have been effectively a new series in every way that mattered.

Maybe they'll finish it in 30 years when the actors have aged appropriately. ;)

It's a shame they killed off Alex in the show because the actor turned out to be a sex pest. Amos is up there as one of my favourite charachters in fiction, and Wes Chatham absolutely nailed it. Thomas Jane as Miller was also brilliant.

I devoured both the TV and the books (not including Leviathan Falls, which hadn't released yet) during Covid lockdown in 2020, and loved them both. It might be time to reread them.
