Not just this, he also explained how the writers, Ty Franck and Daniel Abraham, have lifted up their writing skills for the show over the years in the writer’s room. As he stated, “Because Ty had been involved with George R. R. Martin and had been around for Game of Thrones and getting that whole thing rolling, I think Ty and Daniel had a unique perspective.”
Shankar also revealed that the writers’ duo set things two books ahead that pay off three books later. And as per that, he also changed his approach to breaking the significant elements of the plot because it is a tightly linked structure. It has a lot of ramifications as you go forward into the world, Shankar added.

In this season, the show will shift the entire base from the quarrel between Eart, Mars and the Belt residers. This time, Season 4 will focus on the possibilities of multiple habitable planets, as presented by the Rings. Shankar also explained this plot-line of new planets, who can reside there and what further dangers are inherent in colonizing abandoned planets?

A bunch of Belter squatters has squeezed through the Gate very early on, and they have set up a colony.
