Re: The Patient's Eyes by David Pirie (is really good)

[dreemyweird]

Oh, that's great! It is very neat and surprising, eh? I do so enjoy the fact that Heather isn't your regular Freudian psycho antagonist and that she doesn't seem to be cruel or revel in violence. Doyle's fascination with her is understandable.

>My new mission in life is for him to be happy someday :(

I KNOW, RIGHT? JFC I can never get over it. Doyle is so unhappy and unlucky it makes me want to curl up in a ball. And then there's this scene where Bell tries to console him like the ridiculously amazing person he is, and I kind of fall to the floor every time I read it. Because they try to be happier but it just doesn't work. Even though they both are so awesome and deserve all sorts of nice things.

>Though I suspect I will want to grab it up and watch it when I have run out of books, and if it has excellent plots and character dynamics like this book (which it should, right, since the writer is the same?) I will probably love it and maybe also clutch the sides of chairs and shout at the screen a lot.

Pirie wrote the first two episodes - the pilot and The Patient's Eyes, which have a LOT in common with the first two books (though approximately 1/3 of TPE the book is original, and so is about a half of TNC; The Dark Water has a completely original plotline and does not belong to the series!verse). But the other three are just as good. Okay, The Kingdom of Bones is a bit goofy, but I love it all the more for it.

Fair warning, though, that the series is different in both the mood and the characterization. Also, the only things that make Ian Richardson's appearance resemble that of the real Joseph Bell (and hence the book!Bell) are his awesome white hair and his Holmes-esque nose. His acting is so good, though, that I don't think I'd have anyone else be the Bell of this 'verse.

>Maybe when seventh_seal finishes reading we can have a discussion thread? I have many feelings as you can tell.

I'm all for it!
