I've only watched the first episode.
We shall see where it goes but I'm already annoyed - they just had to go and change the main character of the first book from a male to a female (like they did in Foundation - that worked out well).

On the plus side, the Chinese detective was exactly as I'd pictured him while reading the first book.

It's an odd book series. The first book is polarising - some YouTube SF reviewers just hated it, and said they'd read no further. I thought it was great.
Second book was chilling.
Third book is as if the publisher told the writer to hurry it up, and he had to go and compress three or four volumes worth of SF ideas into one volume.
Cheers,
Renato
