I had already read the books before season 1, but their adaptation succeeded beyond my wildest expectations.

I love this series I cannot WAIT for it to get started again.

I'm halfway through the 2nd book right now, been furiously reading it in anticipation.

Loved the series, especially loved the books.

I want to watch this almost as much as I want to play Planetside2

Used audio books to get through all of them while playing killing floor. That game is surprisingly good for passing time. Enjoyed the series but I don't recommend marathoning them though as it begins to wear on ya.
Also, need more time with Arya, she's made of badass.

I read all the books a few years ago (and the latest one shortly after it was published) but I'm still looking forward to the series. I don't know about reading the books now if you haven't already, though. Probably better to wait for the series to go through the rest of the books, as you'll be waiting around that long for the final two books at least (assuming JRRM doesn't die before he finishes them).

Woooooosh, I can't wait! *Screaming like a little girl*

Great series! Can't wait!

Never read (or even heard of) the books until I came across the show. Enjoyed Season 1 a lot and looking forward to Season 2.

Ohh snap, Rose Leslie as Ygritte. One of the best parts of this series is going to be the dramatic increase in the number of sexy red-heads.

Just going back over what happened in this book as opposed to the next one, and this season is seriously going to be amazing. There is so much crazy stuff that happens this time around...

Graywolves · 2012-03-24, 01:02 PM

For anyone who doesn't read the books, the 1st season/book is really only setting everything up.

It's all just getting started.

What do you guys think of Daenerys, anyway? This is for the people who've seen season 1 and who've read all the books. I fucking hate Daenerys as she is in the first book/season, but like her quite a lot as the story progresses. I watched some interviews with GRRM on YouTube and the people who were fawning over Dany and Drogo was kind of obscene. Drogo was a brutal, murdering warlord who massacred civilians, raped a 13-year-old girl repeatedly (Dany's age is changed to 17 in the show), and gloated over the idea of going to Westeros to rape and burn and kill there.

And Dany loved it. She was all about it. She showed a tiny bit of mercy for Mirri Maz Duur, the maegi in the first season, but she still strolled casually down the road of the maegi's town with women being raped around her, men having their heads chopped off and thrown in a pile, and people being herded away to be sold as slaves. And she was eager to visit this upon Westeros, too.

Crazy bullshit. Dany was a cunt and Drogo a piece of shit. How did they win the heart of any viewers?

Also:

They did a bang-up job on Brienne.
