I recently finished binge watching everything produced so far

like Star Citizen, It will take a few more years to complete

It's pretty faithful to the books

which is to say, a ripping good yarn

Bernard Cornwell is the Man

I have a soft spot for historical series. I thought the first season started off kinda slow but the later ones definitely picked up steam. The production values got better too, I think Netflix upped the budget for the series as it went on.

There were criticisms initially that the series is a bit of a Vikings knockoff but I think it has really come in on it's own.

The Last Kingdom is fucking excellent.

I concur that this series was definitely enjoyable to watch. I've watched the entire series twice now & it was just as good the 2nd time since I was able to spot things I missed the 1st time through.
