I went into it expecting it to have nothing to do with the books. I found all the characters' behaviors irrational and frustrating, with the exception of the emperor.

And I'm getting really sick of incompetent protagonists and impossibly flawless antagonists. I think that's just a reflection of the zeitgeist of the world's masses, but that's another discussion. Suffice to say I'm tired of it being the only trope used in SciFi TV anymore.
