Not sure we can know how significantly it diverges TBH. For S1 to 4 its divergence is almost minimal. Thereafter most book stuff is still in the show and the other stuff isn’t in a book so it’s hard to judge.

When they got it right it was so spot on IMO

Steals and just chucks it in there without much consequence
Kind of see how the vague folklore of the far off lands, the African part etc would echo the hyperbole that British people probably had back in the 12th century or whatever

My brother is looking for the thirteenth book in the series with that style cover artwork and is doing his nut trying to find it. Has me looking for it in every second hand bookshop I go to now.

I had to do the same for the last one because they’d changed the covers again in shops, got it on ebay I think

I suggested that idea but I forgot that he is a prick like me and likes the thrill of finding things serendipitously in shops. Damn him.

I grew up with the original Darrell Sweet covers from the first book through to the ninth (Winter’s Heart), they then switched to the serpent/wheel design in the UK.
