I did not read the books and know nothing about this story. I really love watching shows like Vikings and the last kingdom so I really wanted to watch this.
That being said the first episode , which was free to watch , did not pull me in at all. I didn't feel drawn to any of the characters and they were not believable.
Just felt fake and predictable. I'm sorry for those who have read the books because I really can't stand when a good story is changed when the show or movie is made.
Sorry to say, it failed to motivate me to buy the stream to watch the rest of the show.
Maybe next time.
