I’ve read them all but I’m still bummed that the show got cancelled. Although, a lot of the stuff that happens in 7-9 feels kind of unfilmable to me. But, hey, they’re adapting 3 Body Problem which is insanely unfilmable so who knows.

I actually think the show complements the books really well – probably because the authors were so involved in the production. In a few cases, I think they were able to fix some mistakes in the books on a second go around and also added to the world in brilliant ways too. Belter Creole as a spoken language, for example, doesn’t really exist in the books and was created for the show. It’s also interesting replacing the subjective view of the point of view characters with the objective view of the camera. In the first book, it just bounces back and forth between Miller and Holden. You don’t really know what’s going on system-wide because they don’t. Having that perspective shift is really cool and it’s done in a way that feels cohesive and consistent with the world of the books.
