Can we first take some of their monies and make the last 3 seasons?
I'm having a hard time finishing the last 3 books, being 30 years after the first 6. Never finished the show, did they finish up the show with the first 6 books at least? The show from what I have watched is really good.
They're worth sticking with just to see the end of everyone's arc - memories legion is also great at filling some gaps all over the series
The show unfortunately drops off a cliff before laconia gets started - doesn't end in a bad spot, pre time skip, but the shite with Cas Anvar means they'd have to remake the whole last season to resurrect it
Whiled I loved Cas's character, they removed him for the right reason, I wish he didn't behave like he does because his loss on the show really fucking sucked.
I really need to retry the last book. I was so into the series but the time jump really took me out of it and I just lost interest at some point in the last book. seems dumb not to finish it but it really lost a lot of what I liked about the earlier books. hard to explain
So I am bad at reading or listening to audio books, but I read the overarching storyline, aren't the last 3 really interesting? There's so much that happens in them by the sounds of it.
its not that they aren't interesting, I guess the tone shift was harder for me to get over. that and the story going on after the death of one of the key characters who I won't name was hard too
Man, I really need to listen to the books I think. I love the story too much not to.
The story is great regardless, but there is a definate shift between the hyper realism I fell in love with in the early books, vs the protomolecule Sci fi of the later books - it was all necessary to close the story and the funky Miller chapters were some of the best, but there was defo the sense of getting to the ending for the ending's sake
If there was ever another shot at completing the series I'd be first in line, but in its current state I can't recommend watching beyond season 5
The side characters really did shine in the early tv seasons though - cara gee as a meld of drummer/pa was fantastic, the belter creole was iconic. Wes as Amos was perfect, Cas as Alex was (initially) great, Dominique as naiomi switching between belter creole/common was awesome - it was a shame the series suffered cause Cas was a pig, but I can't blame Amazon for covering their ass
Welp time to dig them out and get to it lol
