This is my favorite fantasy series. They're so well developed in background and history. They're what Tolkien would have be like if he had cared more about characters than long descriptions of landscape.
I've been waiting for this series since over a year ago when I first heard HBO bought the rights to it. I was really happy because I knew only HBO would be able to do the series any justice. There are some questions I have about how they're going to translate some of the later quirks of the series if it continues past book 2. Like Sansa doesn't appear in 2 books, which may mean 2 or even 3 seasons without her. And the novels have been getting so long and hard to finish the series might actually catch up with the books.
