If you've read the book(s), don't approach this show expecting a direct adaptation. A few characters have been redefined, but moreover it's missing the wry humor that makes the source material so endearing. Having said that, it still beats most "average people with powers" shows. You'll only find it boring if you don't like the pacing of British television. If you did enjoy this, I recommend Syfy's sadly truncated Alphas and neatly-concluded Haven.

It's an intriguing premise. But I feel like it could've been a whole lot better. And I don't mean that in a bad way. It was still good and enjoyable but should've been better. The main storyline was underwhelming, honestly. Myfanwy makes up with no memory and finds out she's apart of the Checquy, a secret agency that deals with people with unique abilities yet that's barely focused on, what they exist to do. Myfanwy is the main character and attempting to find out what happened to her is the whole point of the show, I get it. I just think what the Checquy do should've been shown and utilized more instead of being on the back burner which shouldn't have been the case.

The Rook is kinda cool, but it's greatest power, and Eva's powers, is to put us to sleep, and bore us to death.

Pretty good series, too bad it ended after just the first season. There is a proper ending, so dont discard it just coz it got cancelled. Starz has been good at cancelling quality series and let utter crap continue on; this is one of those. Of course its another series about people with special abilities, but this is not Marvel or DC - give it a chance.
