    I hated the show because the books are incredible and set my expectations way too high. It had its moments but the books are on another level.

      I read one of the books, second or third in the series. It was okay. I liked the show much better, especially when they showed bits of “Sanctuary Moon.”

      I’d suggest you check out some of her earlier stuff. “The Death Of The Necromancer” is set in [sorta] 1880s Vienna with a jewel thief and his actress partner getting caught up in a magic war. It’s fun having the heroes get on a train to go visit a witch.

      “The Wizard Hunters” follows the couples now adult daughter as she deals with an airship invasion.
