I am just finishing Dexter's *Deadwood* now, and while many of the same characters are common to the novel and the TV series (they're historical figures), there is only a superficial resemblance between the two.

That said, however, I have seen things in the series that seem to have been inspired by incidents in the novel, so *somebody* has read it.
