Game of Thrones

The books allow for a more in-depth description of people and events. However I believe the show is doing the book justice.

A friend who read the books said Game of thrones (novels) is not completed yet. In fact, GOT season 4 has caught up with the books. Going forward, the series producers going to have to make up their own materials.

Pretty decent article about Dinklage from a couple years back.

Not quite true... there is much more to cover although admittedly the screenwriters have omitted many threads... I believe they have enough material for one more season*.

A Game of Thrones (1996)
A Clash of Kings (1998)
A Storm of Swords (2000)
A Feast for Crows (2005)
*A Dance with Dragons (2011)*

A lot of the storyline in books 4 & 5 happen simultaneously so I'm currently listening to him read the two in this hybrid order (mild spoilers further down the page).

YES! Okay, I have your hybrid order bookmarked. I will start in a day or two after I finish DK's "Strangers" (No SK, very mild, but a good read.)

Thank you too Vesti! :) I'm looking forward to them.

(For those of you watching "Under The Dome", finish the series and do yourself a favor and read the book. New experiences await in your imagination.) ;)
