        It was always going to be a tough ask. I just finished reading the Corwin series again.

        It would be difficult to adapt for a mainstream TV audience. A lot would probably need to change and that could lead to alienating the book lovers.

        Yes, I would love to see a TV series. But only if it was done well with a budget large enough to do it justice.

          No way. There’s not enough material in the books to go one episode per chapter.

          I will admit it’s been a while since I’ve read them, but I remember it being a very fast read. Like, I think it only took me two days to read all of them.

          Quick update. When I talk about having read all of them, I’m talking about the two book club series books that contained apparently the first five novels in approximately 600 pages.

          I have the books that followed that, and I’ve not read them yet, so maybe make it a three season mini series.

            that could be right

            I haven’t read the books in a long time

            I’d still enjoy ten seasons in a fictional universe I love
