I’ve read the first two books and enjoyed them both. I enjoyed the TV series. But I see there are nine novels and eight novellas in the series, and I know the book series goes on longer than the TV series. I’m curious: is the quality fairly consistent or, like a lot of longer book series, does it degrade over time?
Edit: Thanks everyone! Sounds like the vast majority of folks enjoyed all of the books - enough that I’ll probably read them all. I have other books on my reading list, so I might take breaks and read some of those in between.
I really appreciate all the responses. Thank you all. Upvotes all around!
I loved the series
Some of the short stories are hit or miss but they are short and worth reading either way and only short
Could not set them down… except the last one. Jumping 25 years into the future was a strange choice and, for me, less entertaining.
Feels like one to me. When I get into a series I prefer to know as little about the final entry as possible. Didn’t know that was such a hot take around here.
I think I read the first seven and my reading pace didn’t slow down. I like the “personal drama” as other posters characterized it.
Just finished last month and it’s one of the best series I’ve ever read. I haven’t read the novellas so after some time I will reread the series with them included.
Reading book 8 right now. They’re very, very good.
