I have avoided reading anything about this show, but I remember seeing something about George R. R. Martin hasn't released the fifth book (I think it's the fifth anyway), is this in any way going to show the slow down? I know there are 4 completed seasons, does each one follow the corresponding book?


They're 5 books released, and the sixth shouldn't be far off. But no it shouldn't affect it. The creators have said they want 7 seasons, 8 tops, and they'll be fully caught up and ahead of some plots by the end of next season. There's already a pretty big scene the readers have only guessed at, but was confirmed in the show.

Are the books worth the read? I borrowed the first one from someone, but I worry by the time I finish it, we will be caught up with season 4.


There's an 888 page thread still going strong on this site discussing only the novels, so yeah, I'd say they're worth the read.

quote:

Finally, I can only imagine and hope that the rest of the seasons live up to the first, am I right?


They're all about on par with one another.

Thanks fellas!

The one thing that bothers me about not reading the books first are the new set of names that seemed to be introduced each episode. I am scared to google Game of Thrones anything, but my wife sends me a nice link detailing each episode, so that helps. Will probably dive into the first book very soon!

Agreed.

It's not going to affect the timing of when they film at all.
