The boner the internet has for Firefly means Iโll get dragged for this, but The Expanse was by far the better story overall.
That being said, I enjoyed Firefly a lot. But the world building, character arcs, political intrigue, etc was just immensely more immersive in The Expanse. Especially goes if you read the entire series. The show was great, the books were also great and well, expanded, the story. Highly recommend.
Firefly had a lot of potential, but never got into the meat.
The Expanse was able to work through the whole story, except for the last book.
I think they're both good, but the Expanse was better since it has a more modern story, and a lot more episodes.
