people go there to conceive children because it's better protected from radiation, so less chance of something going wrong with the child's development.

things that happen in the interior of the objects being towed toward the station aren't subject to the slowdown effect. that gets mentioned explicitly at one point.

a condensed version of the books is what the TV show is. it's better than the books.

If there's one thing that makes the books a better experience than the show, it's not having to look at Steven Strait's dumb loving face or put up with his poo poo acting :colbert:.

the books were longer than they needed to be. the show trims it down and in the process improves the material a lot.

It would be a neat trick to pass Duerte off as a Martian extra until the reveal.

I'll actually be disappointed if they haven't done this.

Just finished reading Tiamat's Wrath and Dang, the rule of cool on this one. A whole mess of new people and a few tragic ends as well as surprise returns. Is Duarte basically a weird God now?
Is the ninth book still planned to be the end of the series? They've got their work cut out for them.

yeah, 9 is the last one.

Did they get actors from the show back to do voices (sans Cas Anvar obviously)?

haven't played it but I know they got Cara Gee who is the main character. looking at IMDB they got Shoreh Aghdashloo and Chad Coleman.
