I started a thread on this by accident.
But, has anyone here read the books? If a movie or TV show is made from a book I generally like to read the book before seeing the show. Since I've just finished season 1 on HBO, I don't know want to go back and read the first book. My question is, did the HBO series actually end where the first book ends? Can I just start reading Book 2? Or is season 2 on HBO going to also include stuff from book 1 that I need to read?

Sweet, don't know if you guys like True Blood but that sneak peek was awesome

I gave up on it half way through last season. I might still watch it just to see if any hotties get naked.

Last season did get kind of nuts at times but that show rules too IMO, besides most HBO shows I get addicted to and have to finish them even if I get tired of them
Like Entourage, freaking hate that show now but I will watch it each week
HBO is crack man

All the gay shit in true blood was ridiculous. None of that was in the books since Lafayette died in the books.

I know he died in the first fvckin book. But in a way im glad they didnt kill him. He's pretty hilarious until he puts a dick in his mouth and ruins the rest of the show

So can someone that read the books kinda explain the last scene to me? Was hatching the dragon's eggs really as simple as intense heat? What exactly was the ritual performed?

The books aren't very specific but she did sacrifice that woman. Plus it only worked because Danaerys is dragonborn.

3 eggs..3 lives. Drogo, the maegi(witch), and Drogo's horse. A life for a life. The maegi gave her the idea.

Well sir, I am not your average American. I actually started reading the books, but I wanted to finish out the season with that element of surprise. Now that it's over, I'll probably finish the first book and continue one to books 2-5.

I know you're not the average american..im saying thats the reason the writers for the show didnt take the time to explain the process behind the dragons hatching. Im around 800 into the second book now..its great.

Do yourself a favor and read the books. You know it is going to be hard waiting until next year to find out what happens.

I think it's gonna be worth reading the books just to avoid spoilers. I want to be able to discuss this story and universe without worrying about having it ruined for me.
SPOILERS
I've already been spoiled the first scene of next season, where Stannis declares himself king. Also, the deaths of a couple characters.
END SPOILERS
I don't want that to happen anymore.

Yeah true, but I can get past it
HBO always pushes the gay envelope pretty far

That sucks. It is nice not having to worry about the story getting spoiled for me.

Probably because the books describe her as, uhhh, a hottie?

Anybody read the newest book yet? I forgot it's already out and looked it up on amazon. The reviews seem pretty meh. I'm still gonna read it for myself. I was just curious if anyone else has and if they did what they thought of it.
