You all should read the books if you love the show. This is one of my favorite series of books of all time (and the next one comes out in June/July shortly after the first season ends) and perhaps one of the most faithful adaptations (with a few exceptions) if a book to screen that I've ever seen.

As far as I'm concerned, Dany's brother getting his "crown" is when shit gets real and the real underbelly of the story starts to show.

Matlock> They've been more unflinching then I expected really so far. But we'll see how they handle next season.

Hondaracer> The first season is book one, season two will be the first half of book 2. Season 3 will be the back half of book 2 and possibly some of book 3.

The books are:

Game of Thrones
Clash of Kings
Storm of Swords
*Feast for Crows
*Dance with Dragons (coming out this summer).

* These two books actually take place simultanously in the timeline of the series.

They're all available at Kobo for ebook.

I've been re reading the series since the show started and it's an interesting exercise, seeing exactly what they changed and omitted but more then anything I'm impressed by how much of it comes directly off the pages of the book.
