One of the most intriguing aspects of Wayward Pines was the use of suspended animation, a sci-fi idea that involves freezing people for Extended periods. Matt Dillon stated in an interview with CW that the third season of Wayward Pines will probably not happen. It is clear that the show’s writers had arrangements for more than two seasons, leaving many loose ends and unanswered questions in season 2. The first season was adapted from Crouch’s trilogy of novels, which gave the show a rich source material to draw from. The book incorporates a whole town full of mysterious people and takes you on the ride of your life.Also Read: The Tomorrow War 2 Release Date Much of the TV show is based off of the main points from the first book, but the TV show goes in a direction unlike anything in the book. The TV show was great, but the books are even better and the stories are vastly different. Whether you watched the mini-series or not, this trilogy is incredible. What Ethan discovers after that sparks an intense series of events that gestates perfectly into two more, can’t-put-them-down books. Unfortunately for them, they aren’t supposed to talk about that, so now it’s time for them to die. The truth is that the town isn’t what it seems and isn’t real at all, but she doesn’t know what it is either. Ethan eventually finds someone who tells him the truth about what’s going on. He has numerous bouts with the town sheriff who claims Ethan isn’t who he says he is. He starts to remember that he was on a mission to find his old partner who had went missing in that small town. He keeps winding up back at the hospital, unconscious, with everyone telling him he was in a car accident. Somehow, that continues to feel impossible. Through an initial series of trials and tribulations, Ethan has to figure out how to get out of the town. Wayward Pines kicks off when Secret Service agent Ethan Burke awakes in a small town in Idaho with no idea how he got there. They are that interesting, intriguing, and yes, easy to read.

Needless to say, I ripped through all three of them in a week, and then Sean went on to do the same. Like all good mini series, it came to an end, and I asked for the 3 book series that it was based on for Christmas. I think that it was the realness of the characters that had me convinced that I could have ended up in this life. Normally, neither Sean nor myself is particularly impressed by sci-fi (I tend to find it hokey) but this show just really sucked us in. Last fall, we got really sucked into the Wayward Pines mini series on Fox.
