    Thanks! Excellent review.

    What struck me is the “plausibility” of technical growth and human migration throughout the solar system (while replicating Earthly politics and caste systems) as represented in the show.

    BTW, there are guides to Belter Creole on the web if needed :typing:

    I have to agree. I started watching this series after running across the thread. I heard good things about it, but never really gave it a second look. On five episodes in and now I'm debating on whether I should call out sick to work and just binge the rest of it or string myself along making sure that I can have it last until the next season comes out. Holy crap this is good.

    I watched most of it the first time through on a laptop with headphones.


    Now I have a projector and a stereo..... maybe its time to do this again.

    Like, so many.
    I just started this a couple of weeks ago and I'm really enjoying. It's definitely a different feeling show than most sci fi and I appreciate that.

    I think they did this already.

    Caught this on my way to bed earlier.
    I'm currently reading Persepolis Rising (Book Seven) and I'm caught up on the show. Pumped for season five and book nine.
    Also pumped for the inevitable box set that has all of the books and short stories included.
    Hoping they come out with more merch with Season five as well.

    Some of my favorite books and definitely some of the best sci-fi I've read, if not the the best. The show is different than the books but the authors are both included in the production of the show and are active about it on Twitter and social media so I'm okay with that. One thing I miss in the show though is a lot of the political drama especially from the first couple books. Granted, that would've been a hard sell for SyFy so I understand why they did it..
