I am very sure that the following seasons will substantially deviate from the original books - the 2nd book, for example,
can be blend into "A Storm of Swords" without much difficulty, and I sure hope some of the character arcs get shortened.
(For example, Therion could be cut without much problem, as could most of Arya's and Bran's arcs.)
For me personally, it will really come to how they manage the mass scenes and battles in the series.
So far, most scenes in the series were simply very small - the tournament, for example, was really a small disappointment,
because it was so downsized.
But yeah, I can't wait to see the rest of the episodes (got 1-4 by a friend, and the series just started here in Spain).
