I’m currently reading the books for the first time, just finished callibans war. I was wondering, should I watch the serie along with reading the books? Does each season represent a book?

    100% agree. Excellent, tasteful adaptation. It keeps the feel, the most important characters, stories, science, etc. It’s my favorite show of all time, and the books are just perfect.

    I’m a Chrisjen Avasarala fan myself. Amos’s conversations with “Chrissy” are some of the best dialogue ever written.

      The first time around, I lived, ate and breathed seasons 1-5 in the space of maybe 2 months. I WAS beltalowda. I’ve never had such an immersive life experience in my 58 years. Maybe I lead a boring life, and my husband loved the show along with me, but he says he didn’t think in belter like I did. Beratna, sasa, pensa. I was fucking using belter in my head those 2 months. I came out of that period mourning not being able to watch anymore for a year. And I was so lost without that world and those characters that when season 6 came out it was like looking at a photo album of a lost close friend, knowing it would end after season 6 made me hate it. I swear I’m a relatively emotionally healthy individual with a real life…! Really…I swear! Lolol.
