QUOTE(tanguru @ Nov 4 2011, 09:31 PM) Just want to know. How much are the books and how thick are they? Currently 5 Books. I couldn't wait any longer for season 2   Supposingly, another 2 books to finish the series but the author dropped hints that 8th books is possible. The books are ranging from 700 to 1000 pages each and the font used in the books is quite small. In other words, a lot of reading but an interesting one. |

First 4 softcover boxset + book 5 hardcover + shipping is still so much cheaper than buying locally.

Hate it when the author is taking their sweet time and keep changing his mind on how to end the books. Everyone is so afraid he'll pull another robert jordan stunt  |

Everyone is so afraid he'll pull another robert jordan stunt Was tempted but heard it was very repetitive in the middle so give up the temptation. At least, I quite enjoy Song of Ice And Fire so far well into the middle of Book 5. Can't wait to finish it but don't want to finish it as well. As for the TV show, I'm not sure how the GOT fans will handle the sheer amount of new characters in Season 2. Anyway, I have very high expectation for Season 2. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

Better not expect too much frm s2. Especially the battle scene.
 We all see what happened to the so called battle scene between the Starks and lannisters in s1 HBO is rich, but aint rich enuf to film a full scale battle scene on tv |

Those CGI on the Lannister camps are amazing!

But I must say the upcoming battle in the book is very full on even if it just lasts for 5 minutes in the show (which is not possible).We all see what happened to the so called battle scene between the Starks and lannisters in s1 HBO is rich, but aint rich enuf to film a full scale battle scene on tv And this battle plays a more important role than the battle between Starks and Lannister.

Dang!
Characters from Book 2 being cut for Season 2. Actually, it is a good idea since we'll only get 10 episodes for Season 2. The full article here. |

QUOTE(hakimix @ Nov 20 2011, 10:06 PM) So when will The Winds of Winter released? Can't wait to read more of Arya. I'm being optimistic and say 2014/2015.But it may take forever. In the meantime, I'm going to finish the latter half of Book 5 very slowly and indulge myself with the GOT comics. And, more excitingly, Winter Is Coming site reported that an exclusive clip of Season 2 will be out tomorrow. |

Oh, there are a few actually. And the show will spend more time on some love story than the book, which may mean more nudity. This post has been edited by xy2610: Nov 22 2011, 08:05 PM |

And the show will spend more time on some love story than the book, which may mean more nudity.  |
