it be important when watch this series that it be not mean to be a remake of the book . and i will point out that the maker of this show definitely read the book . i be read through the book and caught mention of a character name quana ( i can not remember the context ) and think and flygirl . the one annoy thing be that there seem to be plot jump . how do fallin become employ at coreander . i prefer the bastian of the show over the movie and because now he get to be a boy . i also think the addition of a love interest be a good idea despite it inaccuracy to the book and because that wasn not the goal of the show . overall and i like the show although i wouldn not recommend pay money for it . if you can get it for free though and go ahead and watch it .
