I read the books like 20 years ago, so I basically remembered anything about it, and I’m also enjoying it. The best part of the show, the clone emperors aren’t even part of the books.
It’s funny, I did decide to read the books before watching the show. I’m about 6 episodes in and think it’s very good. I think they actually improved the books in many ways.
I don’t know if people just have a nostalgia for something they haven’t read in a long time (sorry not having a go at you!) or they genuinely like some really not-great aspects of the books that are a victim of their time.
The fact they changed a bunch of characters genders actually works - too many crusty old white (assuming) dudes that doesn’t work nowadays. Making Gaal a more rounded character to tell a story they apparently write in the book makes a lot more sense.
I considered reading the books before the series came out, and I’m really glad that I did didn’t. As a result, I fully enjoyed the show.
