In my personal opinion? No, but I'm pretty particular about following the set story line in the case of tv/movie adaptations. I did my best to give it a fair go, but only made it about 3 episodes in before I got frustrated and stopped watching it.

Ah ha! I thought the TV show was a bit meh on the character development front. I'll definitely add the book series to my list.

Definitely do!

Yeah, fuck the show, was garbage. My wife enjoyed it, and watched most of it if I recall correctly. But being a bit of a purist it just made me really angry....

I only read the 1st book so can't speak to the rest of them, but imo absolutely not. The TV show's finale was garbage. That said Episode 6, which deviated quite a lot from the book, I actually preferred to the part in the book that's supposed to correspond to it.
