Reuben! As a long time fan of the books, I can attest that your critique about how the beasties don’t make sense is indeed addressed in the novels. Frankly, if you liked the show but found it a little half-baked I think you would really enjoy the books. The food issues are discussed, and, while the characters never directly address the inhumanity of using genetically modified animals for war-fighting, the narrative does not shy away from showing how horrific the implications of that can be. Particularly in the final book, the Tunguska sequence was particularly upsetting to young me.
On the whole, I found the setting inspired and I think that anyone who enjoyed the show and wished it spent more time on the setting rather than the plot would benefit from reading the novels and experiencing Keith Thompson’s phenomenal illustrations.
Do the twelve episodes cover just the first book of the trilogy, or the entire trilogy?
The full trilogy.
