Just finished watching the series on YouTube after reading the first book. It was really well adapted, can’t recommend it enough. While the Netflix series come
Thank you for the heads-up. I only read two chapters from the book and was put off somehow. I imagine it gets better?
The first book has way too much of the video game in it that turns out not to be all that pertinent to the story that the trilogy tells as a whole, if that was the annoying bit for you it gets better as the first book concludes and video game scenes are mercifully short in the first half of the second book and eliminated completely after that.
Otherwise if it is the Wikipedia-article inspired narrative style puts you off, that remains consistent across the trilogy and doesn’t get better lol
The problem with this book is that you have to power through 2/3, maybe even 3/4 of the book to get to the best part. I was struggling hard reading it (I’m not the most patient reader), but it blew my socks off towards the end and couldn’t put it off. I think I would still recommend though.
