I'm currently reading the books for the first time, just finished callibans war. I was wondering, should I watch the serie along with reading the books? Does each season represent a book?

The show ends early, but until the final season, very very closely. I won't spoil it but towards the end production of the show ran into some problems due to some ill advised behaviors by one of the actors, and then they kind of just tell you what happened in the book and rush through the shows ending, they covered like half a book in the final episode, the usual shitshow when a show dies prematurely.

The books don't end when the show does. The show is still worth watching, 100%, but I think if it had ended when syfy dropped it it would've ended on a high note.
