Too many changes, extremely disappointed!
I am a fan of Phil Rickman's books, both his earlier standalone novels, as well as his Will Kingdom and Thom Madley book characters and of course I have enjoyed all the Merrily Watkins books, some more than others to be fair.
This tv adaptation suffers from strange casting choices for many important characters, far too many changes to the whole setting, the whole "feel of the novels" has been lost.
I highly doubt I will continue to watch this, it might spoil any future books for me!
Those viewers who have not read any of the books might still enjoy it though.
