I listened to the Unabridged audio books and Game of Thrones is epic. Will be interesting to see if it survives long enough to do all the books and future remaining books.

Thou art not alone. I'm getting HBO just for this series.

^ I already got it right now, because I dont want to miss it even tough I havent watched anything on my TV since december or sth like that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I freaking imported the board game (all THREE PARTS of it) from the US to China for an INSANE fee and still found NO ONE to play it. I already set everything in place to start this game at any given moment - that was four weeks ago. It really drives me mad 8[

Just bought the first 2 books from amazon because of this thread, I love fantasy books so I can't imagine not enjoying them, but hopefully they live up to the hype found here.

They are very Dark and Gritty. You never know what will happen. Very unpredictable. Try to avoid spoilers

best book series I've ever read, you will probably find characters and chapters you will like more than others, but all in all, each of the first four books is a masterpiece and I'll probably start reading them again soon.
Can't wait for the series, I like all the casted members so far, except Catelyn and unsure about the girl that plays Arya, but there are very few pictures of her so dunno.

Am I the only one who didn't like Song of Ice and Fire? There have been enough people getting away with brutal atrocities and crimes against humanity in real life that I don't really get my kicks from reading about it in fantasy.
But why?

Ok thats ok with me. I loved the books and am very happy this is going ahead with the HBO series.

word is that Arya and Catelyn were excellent casts based on their performance in the pilot and their auditions. I wouldn't worry about it, unless you mean they don't look like you imagined they would.. we'll just have to wait for some more production shots and such to find out how they look in costume&makeup

I haven't read the books, but the story sounds great.

HBO always makes top notch television shows, so if the programming is as great as I expect it to be, and I end up enjoying the show I look forward to reading more in the books

The song of Ice and Fire is by far one of the worst examples of fantasy epic. It starts out strong, but then devolves into this ridiculous junk with too many characters and plot lines that no one cares about. As a result, literally nothing happens because by book four, the whole book is enough to lists short actions for the ten thousand random characters in the book (and ironically, he actually left out half the characters plot lines entirely out of that book). I started out liking the series but could not finish book four. Such a waste of time. They could not have picked a worse series to make into a TV show. Even Wheel of Time does not suffer from this sort of devolution into random ramblings and would have made for a way better show.

Oh yeah I have the first book, out of 10, how much would you guys personally recommend it? I might read it, if its getting a show I'm more interested to dig it out haha.


A Song of Fire and Ice is a flat out addition when you are reading it. The story is so emotionally consuming.

There is a certain chapter in a certain book that literally put me in a funk for two days. I was so depressed.

Read. This. Series.

Murder anyone that tries to spoil you.
+ Show Spoiler +
This is an actual spoiler, don't read if you haven't read the whole series yet. + Show Spoiler +
You're talking about the red wedding I guess? That chapter left me an angry bitter person for days after reading that.

Also, did the pilot air then? I'm not really sure how all of this works, I'm only assuming that if the show got greenlit then the pilot is finished somewhere. So is there anywhere I can watch it? (legally of course )

edit: and phexac, I seriously have no idea what you're talking about. The fact that this series has so many characters and plot lines is what makes it so amazing imo.

yea I just meant the looks of them, should've made that clearer. I'm not sure if it was ever mentioned how pretty Catelyn is (in the books), but I always pictured her a little like Diane Kruger
