Even forgiving the realism sins I just thought the characters were unrelatable and their motivations shaky.
But yeah, nuclear thermalpunk or realistic fusionpunk is the way to go. Imagine what the Expanse would be like if Holden yelled "punch it!" and then thirty seconds after after Alex gunned the throttle various coffee mugs and shit could be seen lazily inching towards the aft bulkhead... telling realistic speculative spaceflight stories is going to likely be a lot more like Das Boot than it is The Expanse.
