Wow I enjoyed that. I feel like they more than made up for season 1. I really enjoyed most of season 2 and the last few episodes really got me excited for what’s to come.
Fwiw, I read the books (1-8 I think) like 20+ years ago so have memory of little bits and pieces of the story and vague name recognition. Season 2 knocked it out of the park!
Yeah season 2 was good television and the finale closed it well. Unlike last season, at least half the episodes were really memorable. As a book reader, I wasn’t unhappy with any of the plot departures that were made this episode - it all made sense within the Turning that the show depicts. Although I can’t say I loved the showy CGI in the sky at the end- those sort of things rarely stand up over time and I think it looked goofy.
