Leviathan Wakes (The Expanse, #1)

by James S.A. Corey

It was a real book—onionskin pages bound in what might have been actual leather. Miller had seen pictures of them before; the idea of that much weight for a single megabyte of data struck him as decadent.

This is a passage that literally came from the file sizes of the novels we wrote. How big is a book in terms of data? Well, we have a bunch of examples right here on the hard drive. Do love ebooks in their way, but hard copy will always be our first love. Decadent, maybe, but there you go.
