Who is Amos Burton in The Expanse?
The mechanic you don't want to meet last · Crew of the Rocinante
Amos Burton (The mechanic you don't want to meet last) is a character in The Expanse, part of Crew of the Rocinante. Amos Burton is the Canterbury's mechanic: cheerful, literal, terrifying. Whatever Baltimore did to him before he shipped out, it removed the parts that flinch — he assesses violence like an engineering problem and sleeps fine afterwards. What Amos kept is a working compass made of other people: he picks someone decent, currently Naomi, and follows their moral readings the way pilots follow instruments. As long as the crew holds together, the deadliest man on the ship is also its most loyal.
