Anyone else watching? This is one of my favorite fantasy series ever and I’ve been so excited for the show.
I’m two episodes in and loving it so far. The casting is spot on and I like the way they’ve altered the Crows (Dregs) storyline to integrate the books into one overarching plot. Kaz, my favorite Grishaverse character by far, is so exactly as I imagined him to be, I can’t stop staring at him. Mal is much improved over the book version as well.
I just hope it does well enough to get through at least the first trilogy, getting to see the Nikolai books would be a nice bonus though.

Do you think it matters if I read the books before/during? I've been putting off the show because I wanted to read the books first. H is watching with me and has only been slightly confused, I think you could muddle through without reading first. There’s not a lot of exposition but I don’t think there is much more in the books. Not a show to play on your phone during, though.

Am I the only one who is struggling with Prince Caspian being evil... Narnia did him wrong!

I was just very excited that Prince Caspian was there, but he reminds me of Loki. He's supposed to be bad/dangerous but he's just oh so darn good looking. 😍

Freddy Carter reminds me of Spot Collins from Newsies.

Ooh you’re so right, grown up Spot Collins. My H is so confused by my devotion to the character but he has the same charming antihero appeal as Loki for me.
