The Dunk & Egg stories are so much more compelling to me than House of the Dragon or whatever nonsense the Jon Snow HBO series turns out to be. But I guess the stories aren't grim enough for HBO to have greenlit first.
Rich folks spend a lot of their time talking crap about anyone who could conceivably, possibly, slightly impact their property values. It's what they spend their time on instead of paying taxes.
I think I've read somewhere that the Dunk & Egg is being developed into a show. I've enjoyed HotD so far but I really don't think they should make a Jon Snow show. I feel like his story has been told in the main show. Patiently waiting for Winds of Winter though and I've avoided the preview chapters cause I want to go into it blind.
well in the case of battlefield earth, the organization he founded still makes money from it, and his other books but like most things in life, it's not that simple.
It is now, but it's third in line for spin-offs, behind the Jon Snow show.
Battlefield Earth is a fascinating situation all the way around. Definitely merits its own thread, though.
There's jsut one book, but i do believe it was been divided into two due to it's doorstopper size. The only series i know of his that's more than one book is something about aliens coming here to stop global warming or something like that and i think it's five books long?
It has its issues like a lot of books (the main character's name alone makes me roll my eyes lol), but i find it to be a decent enough read and the introduction part where he goes into his writing past and meets the various other authors of his time is good reading too. He makes the point in his view that there's more than just lasers and rockets to science fiction.
