Here's another sf book series to be turned into a television series: as 'Deadline' reports Allen Steele's Hugo Award winning five book sf saga COYOTE will be made into a sf show. The story is set in the not too distant future, in an America that has slipped steadily into fascism.

STEAM PUNK FANTASY
A bold retelling of the ancient Viking epic – a modern action adventure based on the magical civilization of Kalevala, which combines fantasy and steam punk elements, IRON DANGER will now see Kalevala's main character Väinämöinen as a ripped, muscle bound hero. Armed with a hoe, he faces off against mechanical
‘tank bears’ ridden by the gatekeeper
of a northern fortress that houses a precious magical artefact. The
movie should be out in 2017 coinciding with Finland’s 100th anniversary
of independence!

I'm scared Coyote could really happen.
ReplyDeletethat intro has started happening long time ago.
Delete"Iron Danger" looks . . . interesting . . . perhaps. Don't know about that hoe, though.
ReplyDelete'tis the strangest of weapons, indeed, but I'm sure it has its symbolics :)
DeleteIRON DANGER looks kinda of...peculiar. But ok.
ReplyDeleteit is certainly very special
DeleteNormally, I am all about Steampunk, but Iron Danger just isn't doing it for me.
ReplyDeletewhaaaaat you didna likey when that hoe turned into a phoenix made of light and shimmer? :))
DeleteNaw, I don't think there was one thing in this trailer that pulled me in. It just seemed way too over done.
Deletepfffttt you have no taste for Finnish epics....
DeleteOoo~ Never heard of Coyote before. Sounds up my alley.
ReplyDeletefive books and I think two supporting ones for the saga
Deletegreat fun
ReplyDeletetotally
DeleteIron danger looks very interesting. Pretty cinematography and such a cool ambiance. I wonder if the actual show will be any good?
ReplyDeleteit will be a movie and done on the multiplatform level
