Really good show
I never read the books so I don't have a bias. This show was good enough that I binged watched them all and dawn is breaking. I am tired but it was worth it.
This was some compelling story telling. Life is complicated, humanity is complicated, sometimes there are no good choices and sometimes good deeds are punished. i felt like the story gave fair play to both sides of the Jihadi vs. the West conflict. The story doesn't try to justify what they do or what we do it just shows the motivations and the actions. There are several stories being told that all intertwine, but all are important and there didn't seem too be much, if any, filler scences.
Overall, it was fast paced, had heart and was just addictive.
