For the two or three of us who'd care, Amazon is adapting Consider Phiebas (the first Culture novel) into a TV series.
Even though I'd rate Phiebas as a bad place to start when reading the Culture, it does have very good TV-adaptability (linear plot, a clear conflict, not too much Minds-being-Minds, etc.), so I don't see too many fundamental issues with this idea. Here's hoping they don't screw it up.
What're y'all's thoughts on this?
