almost done with S3 (3 eps left) I really don’t like them just randomly inserting this chic sister into the mix

Has anyone here read all the books?

Have read the first 6 twice, the final three once.

LOVE 1-6, am OK with 7-9. There's good stuff in there, but a lot of slipups for me.

Nah book 8 is a classic.

In season 2, Errinwright mentioned her by name suggesting Avasarala use her to smoke out Jules-Pierre Mao. She wasn't trying to hear that shyt though

I agree that 8 is by far the best of the final trilogy, my beef is moreso with 7 than 8 or 9.

I’m so sick and tired of these egos on display even as they’re all on the brink of annihilation…and what’s pissing me off is that it’s totally realistic/reflective of ppl in power smh

Almost reminiscent of GOT, isn't it? Everybody battling for the throne when Jon Snow is frantically shouting about the existential threat beyond the wall.

somewhat…at least in GOT not too many ppl were aware of/exposed to the threat so you could almost “forgive” their ignorance…in this show they’re all aware of it and still behaving ignorantly…it’s realistically frustrating tho bcuz we saw this with COVID so I definitely believe we would still behave the same way under an even greater threat

this dude created the “child” analogy only to be exposed as the child in his own analogy then just keeps on blabbing away

S4 is generally considered the weakest season (and book) - just a warning. I liked it though.

thanks…I’ll probably take a break rather than rush into it…I pretty much marathoned season 3 over the course of 24 hours…a lot happened…probably better off just letting it resonate a bit
