I know nothing of the original text but it looks awfully pretty.

I knew a lot about the type of world it is because of my interest in the Eclipse Phase RPG world...

That being said, watched first episode last night and it's good :D

Finished it over the weekend. I enjoyed it a bunch. It did a good job of keeping the plot fresh by resolving an issue or a mystery every few episodes, but in a way that wasn't expected and opening up a new thread to pull at for a bit. I was a bit worried that things seemed to be wrapping up earlier than I expected, and then a new can of worms opened up and was able to carry the remainder in an interesting way without just becoming a long, drawn-out coda like, say, EE Return of the King.

All of which makes me a bit sad that I'd ignored the book on my reading list for so long. I've had it loaded on my Nook for ages, but have either been not getting a lot of reading in, or distracted by new, shiny things in series I'm already into...

This show was awesome. Watched it twice inside of a month, then bought and read all three books on my kindle.

Good times.
