Sounds great, hopefully one day we will get 'Lord of Light' TV series as well.

To be fair, Lord of Light is a barely fleshed out treatise. The last three chapters are basically notes. It would take a lot of creative interpretation. Don’t get me wrong, it’s one of my favorite books.

Are yóu crazy, the ending was great, far from notes. It requires no interpretation, just copy the book as it is.

Last time there was a rumored adaptation of it, it was actually the cover story for the CIA to extract people from the Canadian embassy in Iran.

And remember: Argo fuck yourself.
