    @Ronno Watch it.
    The show ends in a completely logical place and wraps up that entire timeline near perfectly. It doesn’t feel like anything’s missing.
    The next three books are set 30 years later in another system. Same crew, wildly different everything else. That’s why they chose not to film them. It wasn’t just ‘ended early’

      Ehhhh, they left several loose threads dangling in the wind…

      There is a whole book about the planet with the fauna that brings organic tissue back to life. They just shut the door and called it a day.
      Also, they barely touched the storyline of mass being lost with gate use.

        @McBinary
        the resurrection fauna planet is in the +30 year timeline. The books didn’t explore the mass loss much more than the show did (other than explaining how they gathered the data), but it was used as the core mechanic of the grand finale - exactly as it was in Babylon’s Ashes.
