I thought this show was fantastic. It has great potential for a season 2 if not more and even though the ending was a cliffhanger from hell(litterally). I truly believe that after it was done explaining the backstory, so that everyone knew what was happening, it delivered a story that I want more of. The actors were great. The combat sequences were mostly realistic. And the costume design wasn't overtly man fantasy made. The only complaint I had was that the betrayal at the end really wasn't much of a shock to me. Overall though, fantastic story, fantastic series and I definitely want more.
