I’m not sure the fascination, but so many authors break their stories up into a three-book series these days. Since I follow the site primarily for tech gadget news, I was a little concerned about the potential quality of their book recommendations, but I figured it was worth at least a shot.įor starters, the book had one strike against it going in. One of their must reads from a while back was Pines from the Wayward Pines trilogy by Blake Crouch. For my latest read, I decided to try a new recommendation source – Gizmodo, one of the tech blogs that I follow. There’s my ever present nemesis – the infamous Amazon recommendation engine. I have a few friends and blogs that have become trusted sources. I did not mention anything about the story itself, because even the briefest summary would be an unforgivable spoiler.Even though I have a reading list that has grown to out of control proportions of 150+ books strong, I’m always on the lookout for book recommendation sources. Don't let the fact it's canceled dissuade you from watching it, because both seasons are rounded wholes, that leave room for a continuation, but don't require it. I believe it could have been better, but it's great anyway and it's a real shame they gave up on it after just two seasons.
While the first season puzzles you and makes you guess, the second gives answers but, because of the strong interpersonal relationships, life dramas and several unexpected surprises and plot twists, it isn't any less exciting than the first. While the first season is a mindfak mystery and is based on confusing plot and mystical atmosphere, the second season is a post-apocalyptic SF drama. I guess bad reviews are the result of a big difference between seasons, but the fact that the second season deviated from the patterns of the first does not make it worse, just different.
Do not make the mistake I made and believe bad reviews, because the second season is excellent, and in some aspects maybe better than the first one. A few days ago, I changed my mind and watched the series all the way through.
It's a shame that it's over after just two seasons A year ago, I watched the first season and, since it was a well-rounded story that does not require a continuation, and since the second season has picked up predominantly bad criticism, I gave up on further watching.
