I enjoy a slow burn, hard boiled detective story. True Detective is a refreshing take on the genre and delves more into the psychology of it's protagonists (if you can call them that). For that I enjoy it and I hope it builds to the big conclusion like it feels that it's aiming for.

Let's get back on topic... GoT is still 3 months away

I have been filling the gap by reading The Kingkiller Chronicle and am about to finish The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive).

I can't believe it is taking George R.R. Martin so long in getting out The Winds of Winter

Especially considering that Brandon Sanderson knocked out two 1000+ page great epic books AND fit in the last two books of The Wheel of Time series while GRRM only produced the mediocre A Dance with Dragons.

All the while the abridged story for the TV show is rapidly going to overtake the books.

Maybe he might do a Robert Jordan on us and Brandon Sanderson can take over...

Sanderson is one of my absolute favs. Check out the The Darkness That Come Before by Scott Bakker for something I think is just as good.

Agreed. Its addicting!

And if you own the DVD's (hehe) you can download the video on thepiratebay and watch it that way.

StLRedrider · 03-15-2014, 12:03 AM

Oh yeah, I pre order them on blu ray thru amazon which is actually pretty cheap but screw it

BTW, Vikings is a bad-azz show for something to hold you over to the GOT season 4 premier. Not as great in scope, but a great story and production quality.

The awesomeness continues...

The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring; written by George R. R. Martin, David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. Your welcome George R. R. Martin, HBO saved your fat-azz.

Great start to the season. I pictured Oberyn Martell a bit different, but the overall character was spot on.

The popularity has without a doubtfully expanded exponentially, but the books were popular in their own right. GRRM has nothing to worry about. I wouldn't be surprised if all the main plot lines and characters already have definitive endings. The great thing about the GOT world is that there really isn't a beginning or ending. There are stories to be told before and after the Song of Ice and Fire.

Yesterday I prepared for the Game of Thrones season 4 premier next weekend. 31" to 46" w/Soundbar upgrade. $160 bottle of Irish Whiskey. Yeah, I love GoF that much:

Yeah, I went crazy with the adult beverage selection:
