Shocking episode, but from comments over the net people are saying the shows /books will get even better, I really hope so.
Without spoiling so much, without a doubt the best ending for an episode, heart pumping as hell and I thought maybe "if" .... (I didn't read the book yet).
Could have been the finale but 1 more epi to go .......
After this season is done will read the book and watch re-run, have read till Bran's fell from the tower, the series really sticks to the book.
Best adaption from the book that I have read so far is probably the scene where Tyrion having breakfast with his siblings and his sister's displeasure with his behaviour and his brother questiong his loyalty to the family, an epic adaption from the book ....
Best opening must be Tywin skinning a dear while discussing the family's honour to Jaime.
1 more epi to go folks!
