    No, I know, and I hope you realise I wasn’t shitting on it. I like it, but it seems a bit aimless? But I like the setting and it’s not too slow for me. It’s not as fast as Star Trek or Battlestar, but it doesn’t need to be.

    I am also aware that each season adapted a different book in the series.

    Wife and I are committed to finishing the series.

      No worries. I actually liked seeing a take with fresh eyes. The co-authors were deeply involved with writing the show, and frankly they wrote the books with an eye towards suitability for TV, so the threads that you’re trying to follow now will come together in a pretty satisfying way, I think.

      When they do eventually indulge in ship combat, that too comes off surprisingly solid as a spectacle.
