    The first couple episodes are kinda a slog; they give a lot of background info for the setting so it’s a bit of an info-dump. The book writers did state that the tv series has their ideal setting appearance and ship design, so it made visualizing the books easy for me.

      Yeah and I had some problems with the concept at first. Everyone was selling it as the hard science fiction show and yet it focused the proto molecule and that’s not hard science fiction. Plus I got annoyed with them spending so much time on the float but using mag-boots but not looking like they’re still in zero G. I know you can’t shoot the show on the vomit comet but really just spend more time under thrust, I’ll be happier.
