Your library may support the "overdrive app" - which means you can check books out of the library with your app/tablet, etc.

Exactly how it worked for me, and very typical of HBO series in general.

I give this show two thumbs up. Episode 9 was treachery at its finest.

And I agree, Peter Dinklage may be the best part of the show.

Same here in my household. This role is perfect for Peter Dinklage. He is exactly how I pictured "The Imp" when I read the books last winter. He should be up for an Emmy for this. My wife hasn't read them yet, but is going to start book 1 after the show. Every week I look at her after the new episode is finished and just shake my head. Can't believe they (HBO) did this, and am still amazed at the job they have done. Episode 10 is going to be epic! Next season, and hopefully season three will put season 1 to shame if they continue to do it this well. The second and third books get even better. HBO has already committed to season 2 (Clash of Kings).

Can't wait for next week. I'll probably end up buying the next two books and reading them before the next season.

McDman · 06-15-2011, 08:06 AM

I just finished the fourth book, there are tons of twist you don't see coming. They're great.

If they pull it off (and I think they will!), EP10 will be amazing -- just like the final chapters of the book =)

I hope the blood magic works Khal Drogo and the Caleesi are favorites of mine I can't wait to see what they do with that story line.

You will love EP10 =)

I just ordered all 4 books off of Amazon.com. 20 bucks for them in paperback. I sit behind a computer 12 hours a day so I should be able to knock them out pretty quickly.

HBO has done a fantastic job on the series so far and I am already excited about Season 2.

Bronco Yoda · 06-15-2011, 12:20 PM

I must get this book series now. I'm digging the HBO show.

underrated29 · 06-15-2011, 02:08 PM

I am pretty upset with myself.

I saw all the hype for this show. But I never watched it because I thought it was about a video game. Anyway- 2 weeks ago a good friend of mine made a facebook thing about how it is one of the best series on tv....

So I watched an episode. Liked it. Watched the one that just happened 3 days ago and now I am hooked. I am just super pissed at myself because I missed all of those episodes before hand.

Aside from some bigger name actors- like sean bean and such. There are a lot of people I recognize from other shows. I like that especially if they did a good job. One I remember was Ronin from stargate atlantis. I like him. And the Khaleesi-is so effing hot!!!!!

I feel way behind the 8ball, but if there are books on it and as good as you guys claim I will be checking those out for sure!

All 9 episodes are out on HBO on demand, also on HBOGO if you prefer to watch them on the tablet/pc. The books have been a surprisingly good/great read. I stopped 3/4 way through book three as I didn't want to color my view of the charactors any more than I already had. I'm kind of jealous of my wife as she has not read the books yet, so it is all new and the show can be taken on it's own merit. She loves it. Catch up as season two and three are going to be huge/even better than season one.

RhymesayersDU · 06-15-2011, 03:14 PM

GAME OF OWNS.

SonOfLe-loLang · 06-15-2011, 03:21 PM

Last Sunday, Sean Bean was stabbed outside a bar and, instead of going to the hospital, he went backinside and ordered another drink.

I read the first one in a day.

Dude, finish the books. There are three more coming out so you will have a bunch of time after this next one comes out.

heh heh heh, I know, I know...and I will. Next week. I read book 1 in a day and a half (flying to Phoenix from Atlanta to my folks), book 2 in a week (at my folks), and half of book three (returning from my folks) in fairly short order. I only stopped as I didn't want to further cloud my view of the show with what I already knew was coming (it started the Sunday before I got home). I'll knock out three on Monday night, and cruise through 4 on Tues/Wed of next week. I've got 5 on preorder with Amazon, so it will get shredded in short order next month. I eat books constantly. Also looking forward to Daniel Sylvia's new Gabriel novel, and hoping for a new Glen Cook book soon as well.

Oh sick! they are on HBO on demand! That goes for Direct TV too I assume?

Nice, I am setting up to dvr from my phone right now so I can watch them and catch up after the hockey game.

Good call!

Available until 7/18/11 on Comcrap, as for DTV-I would think so as well. Once my wife finishes book 1, we will do the weekend Butt-numb-a-thon during the dog days of Atlanta summer (July-August) and watch them straight through. Should play very well, me thinks! WOW!!! We are getting the crap kicked out of us by lightning and hail right now, glad I cut the yard this AM.
