So, although I am sorry for how it all went down between JB and the show, I am extremely grateful for it opening my eyes to this experience.

To what does this refer? I was under the impression that JB was mostly okay with the show but is counting the days before the rights revert back to him.

I discovered the book through this forum I go to. When I picked up the first book in Chapters to sit down and read it, I thought my steamy pile of crap is better.

This was a year or so ago. I went back to reading the first book again with a bit more open mind and it's not as bad as I thought. Though others did say the later books are much better.

Starbeam had read the books and wanted to watch the show. I ,at the time, thought the premise was stupid but after watching the show and having her tell me where stuff had been changed piqued my interest. I read Stormfront while the show was still running and I haven't looked back. I am happy to admit I was wrong.

I don't think I posted here yet.  I head about the books because of the TV show.  The reports of SciFi picking up the series mentioned that it was based on a series of books about a wizard in modern-day Chicago, and I thought that wounded interesting.  I think I made it from Storm Front through White Knight in about six weeks. 

And I proselytize the scripture of Saint Jim to everyone I can.  I've got at least a half dozen people hooked on the series.
