Only on book three, so far there's a Jewish inventor of the space drive, a foul mouthed but wise pajeet grandma politician with her soy husband, strong independent mongrel women, south east Asian doctor looking for his daughter, interracial lesbian pastor, oh and foolish/violent huwite men. shitskins diversity IN SPACE!

I liked the early Expanse books. After.. 4 (maybe 3) they get worse, each book worse than the previous. At one point they do a time skip just because they want to ditch the remaining white characters. The authors were infected with critical wokeness, post 2011. Probably trying to jockey for Hugo awards.
If you want more fun space sci-fi do the John Ringo books. One series starts with A Hymn Before Battle, this is an Earth is invaded by aliens kinda thing, with other elements secondary. Though, personally I liked his series that started with Live Free or Die. Earth gets sucked up into a galactic conflict at the same time as finding out they aren't alone. The main protag is a bit unbelievable, but it's more of a macro view of story than micro at some point.
I can also recommend the Wardogs Inc series, about a space mercenary company. The universe has several very interesting premises, namely with regards to the usability of technology in warfare.
I will check that out. Thanks.
No problem. I believe Battlesuit Bastards is the first of the bunch.
