Well, I haven't read the book, so went into the series knowing nothing and have enjoyed it well enough. I'm six episodes in and the last episode was pretty gangbusters. I thought the CGI looked decent. It's hard to say if the setting is not that realistic because it's two ships stranded in the ice and the weather is lousy and you could say it looks like a sound stage. Well, that's what it is but the ships are realistic and quite a bit of the show takes place inside the ships so I really can't complain about anything yet. That said, I understand where you're coming from, pahaK, in that I just watched the entire mini-series of The Alienist and was disappointed by all the changes made there, seemingly for no reason. The last episode dovetailed fairly well with the book but by then I'd already slogged through all the unnecessary changes so I was kind of relieved for it to be over. With The Terror, given what you've said, I think I'm better off not having read the book.
