I did come Late into the series, in fact, I am in afganistan waiting on a copy of changes to cross my path now. It was funny for me. I always saw promotions for the show on scifi, but i could never catch it on the air. This was of course a time before the rise of the home DVR, and although it caught my interest, i couldn't get the timing right. Then, of course, came the miracle of netflix, which had every episode on file... I was hooked but was left hanging.
A few months later, an man in my National Guard unit, tried to get me interested in book on tape (audiobook for those of us who don't remember tape). I was never much of a reader, having problems with reading comprehension as a child and early adulthood always made it hard to focus. I saw audiobooks as the much as the same, a lot of effort for little reward. After much arguement and a bit of arm twisting I listened to another author's book on cd which he gave me.... I was hooked again, and could not believe the worlds i was missing and have now finally been converted.
I told you all of that, to tell you this...lol... I became a member of a audio book club, not sure if I can mention, and started looking for other things that would peak my interest. Low and behold, there was "Storm Front". My mind went back to the tv series, and I decided then and there that I must read (listen) to see if there was a continuation from where the series left off. Imagine my surprise when the Book blew me out of the water and far exceded my expectations. Now i find that I can either listen actually read the books and not miss a beat ( for those of you who have never had reading problems, that is a REALLY big deal). And I also realize that the TV series, although good in its own right, is a distant memory. Though i am thankful to it for the intro, I do not miss it at all.
