Do you know those cases when the sequel to a book comes out in a strange way?
The same thing happened with the Russian book 'food department'. The book came out in 2019, and already in 2021 there was a series consisting of 8 episodes.
In short, this is a thriller book about a pioneer camp where some pioneers become vampires and the main character tries to survive the shift there. The vampires there are not quite ordinary, but it was interesting to read. The book has an open ending and at the end of the first season too. The series was quite successful, not a hit, but the atmosphere of summer and pioneer camp, coupled with sometimes unusual twists, was really cool. Yes, and the hidden subtext and the topics raised were unusual.
I only read the book before this summer, but I watched the series this summer. The second season came out and if I have no problems with this, like everyone earns as they can, then the second book came out next. The first part was written by Alexey Ivanov, the second is being written by another author. It doesn't fit in my head.
Have you ever had cases when you read a series or something similar, and a continuation comes out from another author? What is your opinion about such cases?
