As you said that after Babylon's Ashes is a 30 year gap, it even makes more sense, they would have to hire a complete new cast :)
In this sense yes. The ending of "Babylon's Ashes" is a good point to end the show prematurely.
I meant that they will at least wrap up the show for the people that do not read the books, it won't end with a huge cliffhanger now.
Unless you consider an open ending "proper", I doubt that they will cover the remaining 4 books (one of which is not finished yet) in one season. Especially considering a 30-year gap between "Babylon's Ashes" and "Persepolis Rising", which means they can't easily jump from book to book as before.
Better than nothing, but I seriously hoped that they will adapt all 9 novels.
This is good, so it will have a nice and proper ending :)
