Well the first book in the series was the one that I sort of fell in love with and that first book is what I based the pilot episode on.

So the pilot episode is very similar story-wise, and then I felt once we did that, it was a decision that I made just at that point let the series take on a life of its own and have it just become its own thing. So [the book] was very influential on the first episode and from there we just kind of riffed on it.

It was kind of interesting because while we were doing the series the series of books was still being written, so there were these two parallel universes going on at once. They became very different in weird ways. There were some similarities but that’s how we approached doing the series.
