I haven't read the books, but the hints given out can't be missed. There's a reason they keep showing those dragon eggs. Same thing with the direwolves. I know they're connected to the Stark kids, but Bran waking up when Lady is killed makes me think there's a lot more to it.

I want the boxed set of books, but I'm on a no buy right now until May.

Yeah this series has more red herrings than the entire coast of Norway. Don't bite on everything.

I'm just sayin'.

I got that exact set you pictured... $36 at Barnes and Noble... 807 pages and I'm only on page 39 so far... lol... stupid work getting in the way of my reading...

lol @ boromir on the cover

[sunbunny]

That's not too bad. Sucks I don't have a B&N, though. Maybe BAM will have it, but it'll be more.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

You jackoffs should have read it when I suggested it in the Sci-fi and fantasy thread at least 100 years ago.

There has to be something to the platinum blonde chick and her brother to dragons. She has getting it DS with discomfort on her face and then gets this huge grin on her face when she focused on the dragon eggs. That being said, on the shows budget, I dont see how they could have a dragon in the series...way to much CGI would be needed.

i want fugging dragons

Like this?

[sunbunny]

There better be some damn dragons.

[SmootsDaddy89]

I think they could do dragons. They might be pooty-looking dragons, but dragons nonetheless.

WalMart has the first book. Man, it's a thick book. I'll probably pick it up sometime this week. If I'd bought it tonight, I'd have started reading it. I've got too much going on tomorrow for me to get into it and not put it down.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

Dragons are gay as fug you assholes.

[Darth Urious]

I only got to the part where Jon Snow and the Imp were talking during the feast... I'll pick it back up today...

I've noticed quite a few differences, but nothing I would consider major sticking points... The book does a good job of visually painting people's character types, and I think the show picked up on that well...

If you don't want a small spoiler, don't read any further...

Since the part of the show has passed, I'll mention the biggest difference in the show and the book so far is that Catelyn in the book wanted Ned to accept Robert's offer, and in the show it was almost polar opposite... That is pretty big, but I can understand why the show did it...

[Porn Shop Clerk]

Yeah but that doesn't really affect the plot or anything else.

Now if Bran hadn't been pushed from the tower...
