ClareR (6134 KP) rated Preacher: Book 1 in Books
Jan 27, 2018
I'm afraid this beats the TV series hands down....
Absolutely brilliant. This has the same characters as the TV series, but that's about where the similarities end! The storyline is an extravaganza of violence, sex, drugs, alcohol and blasphemy! Cassidy is still one of the best characters in the story though, The TV series definitely kept his quirkiness (thankfully).
This isn't for the faint hearted, and those who are very religious may not like it much either. God has done a bunk and The Preacher, who has been possessed by Genesis, has gone looking for him. We meet corrupt, ineffective cops, gangsters, a Saint of Killers, angels, serial killers, and the most dysfunctional family I've ever had the pleasure to read about!! And all in volume one! What on earth will they have to offer us in volume two? Id better get saving my pennies to buy it!

Aug 20, 2018
My absolute favourite series at the moment! Despite the dystopian setting it is scary how real the problems portrayed can seem and how possible the world feels! This is the only time I will probably ever say this but I much prefer the TV series than the book, not to say it’s a bad book, but that the show is that’s good!

Good read, rather different than the tv series.

I really enjoyed this book, I read it before the Netflix series rolled out and I'm glad of it. I found the similarities good but the differences between the two were annoying, I understand why the show didn't follow completely - because of an episode time line, but I found it unrealistic.
David McK (3770 KP) rated Sharpe's Eagle (1993) in Movies
Jul 31, 2021 (Updated Jul 31, 2021)
The second of the early-to-mid 90s TV adaptations of Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe series, based on the first published of those novels and starring Sean Bean in the title role.
And, already, the restrictions of a TV budget are beginning to show somewhat: The Battle of Talavera, for instance (which occurs at the end of both the novel and this made-for-TV movie) is a decidedly small-scale affair, for instance!
Still, for all that, this is still an enjoyable enough adaptation of the source material.
