Episode 3 got me hooked...
I am the only one who hates audio books and prefer to read ?
They kind of ****ed up the whole scene when Viserys gets bitch-slapped by one of the bloodriders. Dany tells him to walk, not the bloodrider.
Ending of 4th episode is very promising. Will look if the book is available in Germany.
I read the german translation + the english original within the last two weeks, the translation is excellent. The german version is called: "Die Herren von Winterfell".
There is a part in episode 3 where Jorah Mormont, upon hearing that Viserys is pregnant decided that he should go somewhere. However there was no explanation as to what happened in episode 4, and it showed that he was with the horde the whole time. I find this confusing. Was it a continuity error in the series, or will it be explained later on? Can anyone who have read the book explain this to me?
Searched it.The place Ser Jorah said he needed to go was Qohor. He said, "I need to ride to Qohor." Of course, unless you've read the book, it makes no matter since the show hasn't told what that place is or why he would need to go there.
Haven't gotten that far in the books, but it might be a setup for later episodes. [Spoiler]Apparently he's a spy, but still an ally.[/spoiler]
Thanks, Fargin!
The relationship between Daenerys (Dany is pregnant, not Viserys (lol) lotsoffreetime) and Jorah Mormont is extremely important. Also keep in mind that Jorah Mormont is the son of the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. There will also be an explanation of exactly who the maester of the Night's Watch is, which is really cool.
I might need to buy the books. Audio books just doesn't work for me, since I have an attention span of a 3yo monkey on meth.
I am surprised to find this. I picked up the books 10 years ago and this series quickly became my favorite. IMO the books read far better than the HBO series, little more detail. BUT, the series is doing a very good job at keeping true to the characters and the books.
Some of the things that bothers me is that the maesters have not been described what an honored/learned position they have. Also, the direwolves are not being used as frequently as they were in the book. For example: Ghost (John Snow's direwolf) has only been seen a few times, and IIRC has not been named in the TV series.
Also, Martin has pushed out the release date for his 5th book about 3 years now. I am very aggravated about the whole thing.
Robert Jordan's been dead for a few years and he's put out more books than Martin has.
Oh well, you can't blame me, he wasn't much of a man to begin with
He was getting some in the bath though, which I don't recall from the book LOLOh well, you can't blame me, he wasn't much of a man to begin with
I read the first book a while ago, and I can't remember that scene being in it. I will tell you that in the books, he is revealed to be doing some other type of work other than being an errant knight.
