Sweet. Read the book a few years ago and heard they were making a show but completely forgot about it. Can't wait now. :D

Will it have monsters in it ala At the Mountains of Madness?

I like Ciarán Hinds, might have to watch this.

Its probably my favourite book of all time, i am honestly ridiculously hyped, but also prepared for crushing disappointment given how bad TWD has gotten on AMC :lol:

Yeah I hope it's good.

One thing I'm confused by is all the talk of it being a complete story. Are they doing the whole book in one season? If so what will they do if it gets renewed?

I've got the book but never read it because I'm a lazy strawberry float. I don't know whether to bother ever, now.

10-11 hours doesn't seem enough time to build the overwhelming feeling of dread that the book manages to.

The book never made it to audio though. So it must be pretty bad.

Love Dan Simmons stuff (the Hyperion Cantos especially) but have never read this. Now I'm conflicted whether to watch this or read the book first...

No way, it'll be a Titanic adventure. Season 3 to revolve around Captain Scott in the Antarctic.

Started on the book. There's something about Simmons writing that makes me feel in love with his books like no others. So good.
