I really enjoy the OMW books, but The Last Colony/Zoe's Tale should have been 1 book. WAY too much overlap in story. -- nm - TWuG Aug 18, 11:42 4
- Too much overlap? Exact same set of events so too much is probably an understatement. ;-) Each to their own but I loved Zoe's Tale. I - JD Aug 18, 11:48 2
  - I think it would have required a different structure if in 1 book, but the narrative would have been better. - TWuG Aug 18, 11:57 1
    - I'm with you on the possible disappointment if I was reading them real time. I found the series late and read all of them in like two months - JD Aug 18, 12:20
- heh. two chapters in and Im like is this reallly going to be just a different side of the story I *just* read?? - Jovian Aug 18, 11:47
(oh, you mean the book. Loved The Strain, did not even finish the second one, though). -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 11:39 2
- oh no no, I mean the TV series. Just combined two different topics since I havent been on much! -- nm - Jovian Aug 18, 11:40 1
  - Ah! Good to hear, then. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 11:41
The show that has sort of came around and surprised me is Extant. - Spawn Aug 18, 11:38
