I love the show and I didn’t know there were books. I like to see a movie/ show and then the book after. I love being able to picture the characters when I read, so watching before helps me be ready to read a book. Most of the time, books end up being better than the shows… so it’s a plus to watch first sometimes
The show is great but we did like the books even more - hopefully you will too! Look out for another one of our episodes on books 4-6 here in the next few months too
If I recall, countries seceded to the U.N. to save the planet from climate change. This would have been far before the Martian colony claimed independence.
I loved the show but was bored by the book because it was all spoiled already, and the writing isn’t that good to engage me…. I do hope to get back to it at some point. Did you guys read red rising ?
@@hugonautspod it’s certainly a favorite of mine. The first book is not good, but it gets very good later on. Dark Age is one of the grittiest books I’ve read
We didn't get that far in the TV show - sounds like its worth picking it back up! At this point we'll probably wait till we do all the books, but then it'll be time to get back into the show.

Just finished Abaddon's Gate myself...it's a very fun series!
It really is!

Brent started it but put it down fast because of all the ya tropes. Heard it’s get better though and should probably revisit - did you like it?

@@jaishansfor sure - sounds like definitely worth pushing through then!
I thought Ashford was an even better character in the tv show.

@@hugonautspod Would be interesting to see a discussion comparing the tv show and the books.
TV Ashford and Book Ashford are different characters tbf
