Dissenting view, I absolutely loved the books. Couldn't stand the show.

I thought the first season was just OK, but after that it just went off the rails for me. The combining of different narratives from different books, the combining of characters and some of the casting choices just irked me.

Some of the casting was great (Avasarala being the best casting choice IMHO) but others were awful, such as Naomi (again, IMHO).

I'm glad others liked it, and I know I'm in the very small minority, but that's OK.

I still have the books to go back to and re-read for a 4th and 5th time of I want!
