Really enjoyed the movies and heard the books had all of that and more. It did!
I tend to stray away from grand-sweeping narratives, sticking with more personal and small scale stories, but this has shown me that it’s so good.
It is 90% world building and politics; but really interesting world building and politics.
Anyway, I’ll be checking out more stuff in the future with the same level of scale, I feel. It’s a nice change of pace.
