shouldn't it be the "A Song of Ice and Fire" thread as "Game of Thrones" actually is just the title of the first book?
well, I read the first 4 books after watching the first season and I really wonder how the second season will differ from the 2nd book, as there are some small differences between book 1 and season 1 - especially the ages of the characters are very different (probably because they couldn't let 13 years old Daenerys do all the things she does ;) )
