I was recommended to watch this series by a friend and have just finished watching the first season. Fantastic stuff it really blew me away, I have already ordered the books

highly recommend... but be aware lots of boobies and lots of violence so if you don't like that kind of thing dont blame me

!!
Hopefully the books are good, I usually prefer books to films anyway

but I doubt the will beat the awesome sci-fi space opera that is "Nights Dawn Trilogy".
