This is one of, if not the best adaption of a book I have ever seen. Not sure if that's because the author is listed as the creator of the TV series or not, but wow! When I heard they were making one of my favorite science fiction books into a series on Apple tv plus I was excited, and also worried it would be a disappointment. I am more than pleasantly surprised by this series. When I read the book years ago I instantly loved it. It's a page turner until the very end. I can't wait to read it again. Most of the time series or movies don't line up with the books they are based on, but this is the exception to that rule. Every episode (only 3 so far) are brilliantly produced, written, and executed with great acting. The episodes are true to the book. The pacing is perfect. Some have said it starts slow, but I don't feel like that's a problem. The book begins that way too, and it's for a reason, because once things kick off it isn't going to let up. I can't wait to see the rest of the season, and see this brilliant book come to life on the screen. So much more to come from this story, that people who haven't read the book won't see coming. I really hope this series gets the audience it needs to be as successful as some of the other series on this platform. I'm thinking of 'For All Mankind' right now, which is getting a 5th season along with a spinoff series. Apple TV plus does it right again, by picking interesting stories, and providing the funding needed to make them shine. Even if you haven't read this book, you will love the series. 10 out of 10 for me.
