"(the writers of the book were also show runners)"
This must be why the books read like a TV or movie script to me.
The books came much earlier than the show. What they meant was that the showrunners involved the writers of the books in the production of the show, which resulted in a much more faithful adaptation than is usual for these things.
Yes exactly. Thank you for clarifying my mangled sentence :).
