I didn't even know it got a second season. I watched the first, having read all of the books (and enjoyed Six of Crows) but it did nothing for me, and the characters I actually liked who were introduced about 3 seasons too early were around from the start and really disappointing.

I get why, because otherwise when it got up to book 4 we would have had a total change of setting, cast, tone and even genre, but the Crows were so useless. And the Nina backstory thing should have had its own flashback episode when it became relevant instead of mixing it into a completely unrelated story. I dunno, stick to the books for this one I think.
