Obligatory The Churn recommendation. It's a novella focused on this character's backstory. It's all set well before the TV series and the full-length novels, so you can go into it having read nothing else.
Yep. The Churn will help you understand Amos.
The Churn is a short novella that was released between the third and fourth books.
If you like The Orville, you might like The Expanse (Formerly a ScyFy Show, now being produced by Amazon, also a series of books).
The character Amos is originally from Baltimore, there's a novella that dives into his past in a dystopian Baltimore. The Churn.

The Churn: An Expanse Novella (The Expanse)
It did. It's quick read too (couple hours) and I think I only paid like $6 for it on Kindle. Actually, now only $2.99
Great article! I can't stand having to wait until the summer for the next book so learning they were releasing another novella is good news.
The next novella is released on April 15th:
The Churn: An Expanse Novella by James S.A. Corey
https://www.amazon.com/Churn-Expanse-Novella-ebook/dp/B00I82884W
Perhaps if you consider reading the synopsis on Amazon a spoiler. But I tagged it anyway.
There are three novellas by J.S.A. Corey, set in the world of The Expanse: 1) Gods of Risk, 2) The Churn and The Vital Abyss
The short stories are all amazing, and a couple bucks each on Amazon. The Churn tell Amos's backstory. Wes Chatham read that book with a therapist to talk about what that sort of childhood would do to an adult to prepare to play Amos. The Butcher of Anderson Station reads like the attack on Thoth station, but way harsher. Much more details than the show portrayed. The Vital Abyss shows what happened to the surviving scientists from Thoth.
Did you read The Churn? It's about Amos' past growing up in Baltimore and talks about a food-stamp/credit chit like program for basic IIRC.
According to Amazon: 77 pages
