Timelines of The Expanse, both TV episodes and written works

Had I read the novels before seeing what, in all its aspects, in many respects is the best scifi series ever, that timeline would come first.

THE EXPANSE:  THE TV SERIES

Rather than divide up the TV series by its seasons, this timeline separates them by the novels from which they are derived as well as noting two short stories added to episodes plus two novellas that in the TV series coincide with a season equivalent to a novel.
