I just finished The Expanse. It's 9 books. I don't know about prose level, it has its moments, but it's a hell of a ride.

The Expanse is exceptional. Sci fi almost never has realistically written characters to go along with the science.

9 books and 9 novellas! All of them EPIC. Such a great story, when I first finished the series, I immediately read it again.

Second this...

I know OP asked for Gene Wolfe not Brandon Sanderson, and on the 'seriousness' spectrum The Expanse is much closer to the Saunderson end (fun/exciting), but the writing / storytelling is pretty high quality IMO...
