Mass Effect, Star Trek, similar stuff, without the giant franchise money machine. To consume like popcorn.

One of my favourites is Spiral Wars by Joel Sheppard.

The Expanse does have a show tied to it, but the book series is excellent. And frankly, the show is great too. A shame it only covers a bit more than half of the books.

Read them already. Fantastic recommendation, particularly early on when it's more about them galavanting around in their stolen ship haha. I really enjoyed the last three but it got very wide ranging space opera.
