I've started reading this book last weekend. Finished Game of Thrones in two days. It's fucking awesome, a lot more 'sir this sir that' and nobility than I'm used to from my fantasy novel, but it was still good fun.

Would love to read the series, but I'm not sure I really have the time to invest. Speaking as someone who has to finish a good story before I can even consider putting it down and doing anything else, how much time should I expect to invest in the books?

I've actually very much found this not to be the case. One of the things I think he does really well is that, when you're reading a chapter from someone's perspective, I almost always want that person to succeed.

I disagree with your assessment on several occasions over the length of the series.

Well yeah, this also tends to be true. The man writes really compelling characters, and during chapters focusing on a certain POV, unless it's someone like say Cersei, I generally want them to succeed, too. That being said, though, everyone I know who's read the books has one House that they want to see win, that they personally would fly the colors of, so to speak.

Haha, hilariously, the friend that introduced me to the books also loves the Lannisters. We get along well. It's the Stark types I tend to butt heads with, and the Baratheons, well fuck those guys.

I'm not so much the type that cares about whether or not a specific clan will win, I care more about individual characters and hope that, at the very least, they survive a bit longer if not reach whatever goal that they want. Specifically Tyrion, Arya, Jon Snow, Samwell, and more recently, Jaime, who is proving lately that he's far less of a fucktard than his own illegitimate son was.

Jaime quietly snuck around to being my favorite character, all told. Of all the horrible shitty things he's done the one act he's actually hated the most for is probably the only thing that makes him even remotely sympathetic by modern ethical standards.

Finally got around to starting this extremely good series a couple of weeks ago and am nealy through Game of Thrones - yes this is a definitely compelling read with well developed characters, and even the tertiary characters aren't cut outs.  Good to see that Mr. Bean is playing Eddard - he is one of the few actors I could see pulling this off.  I haven't checked IMDB for the cast list, but I kept seeing Brian Blessed as Robert - anyone else think that would be a decent casting?

The footage of him makes it seem that he'll play the part fine.  I don't think the series will focus on Robert too much, though. 

Also, the third book is the best of the series, imo.  Good luck with the ending of the book! ;)

The 2011 one (with the castles) was done by a different artist, Ted Nasmith, my friend, John Picacio, will have the 2012 version available next July, but yes, fantastic art on all of them.

Here's a page that shows the back cover of 2011's with thumbnails of the rest of the art. The cover art is the only one that's been shown for the 2012 so far.

I'm 150 pages into A Game of Thrones and those of Lannister blood introduced so far bar Tyrion are horribly contemptible.  I'm curious to see where the Stark children will end up and hopeful that Dany will end relations with her spiteful shit of a brother. Congratulations to Martin for getting me to care so strongly about these characters this soon into the series.

Just reached the halfway mark. My conclusions and predictions stand as follows:
 - Dany is almost as annoying as her brother now. She will be insufferable once those eggs hatch.
 - Ned Stark is not long for this world.
 - Arya is destined to be a Faceless One or whatever those 'spensive assassins are called.
 - Jamie has fathered all Cersei's children. As such, Jofferey's claim to the throne is illegitimate.
 - Sansa is going to get seriously fucked over now that Lady is dead.

I had similar predictions at that point in the book, minus the Arya one.  What gave you that idea?

Everything in this book is foreshadowed, that prediction clicked for me when the Council mentioned those guys. Arya doesn't stay put when things go to shit and she's is learning to dance from a Braavo, Syrio. An escape across the Narrow Sea, where she can further her studies, seems more than likely at this point but I don't know when this is going to happen.

HBO held a private press event and invited two members of the 'Winter is Coming' blog.

They give a play-by-play of the 15 minute preview shown there for the first time.

I just reread the first book in this series, I got through books 1-3 at least 7-8 years ago and it's time to revisit them.

I love this shit.  It's so good.  I really hope the HBO series isn't a mess.

The production values for costuming and set design look good, and the author approves (look at the HBO Canada site and they podcasts indicate that Mr. Martin knows abotu it, was at the set and approves) - so I have hopes.

Besides, Sean Bean's in this - I rather enjoy his work.

The production values for costuming and set design look good, and the author approves (look at the HBO Canada site and they podcasts indicate that Mr. Martin knows abotu it, was at the set and approves) - so I have hopes.

He also appears on several of the featurettes they've posted on Youtube, so I'm pretty sure he's down with it.

new trailer

I am really excited. Littlefinger looks nothing like I pictured him, but it fits the character really well.
