Yup. The book is amazing. The miniseries was awful IMO. I have literally read the book about 10 times over the years. It's my favourite book.

What is most annoying is the paperback copy of the book I have says right on the back - soon to be a major motion picture. It never made it until the miniseries, which as mentioned above, was crap.
