this is very tame compared to addicted. It doesnt have the same brutality that addicted does. And what I was surprised at after watching the first 4 episodes and then reading the novel, was the big age gaps between the characters. And how after becoming the new Joe their ages became much closer, But Ming was still really young in the book 21 at the start (and I guessed about 22 in the series, but no way after watching the series did i think that Joe was in his 30's) Because the actors looked a similar age.
Thank you. I read 2 volumes of Addicted and now less afraid to read this novel.
