Ahh, but the question remains, the book series or the HBO series?
Answer. Daily Double. Both.
I began reading the first GoT book in the series after having purchased it for a whopping two dollars and ninety-nine cents at my go-to bookstore back in Sarasota. The Goodwill Bookstore. I must write a post on that later...
So this book, if you know nothing of it already, follows the saga of numerous royal families in a made-up world. Think Lord of the Rings mixed with other sci fi/mystical works, but BETTER.
Read Book One, and you will:
a) find a fondness for Tyrion Lannister, a dwarf and yet also somewhat a libertine
b) appreciate warm weather; winter is coming will give you the willies
c) despise the creepy incestuous relations of the Lannisters; crazy blondes everywhere
d) fist pump for Danaerys; talk about girl power!
e) want a direwolf as a pet ... so badly
Watch the first HBO season, and you will:
a) realize it should be completely titled as: A Game of Thrones: Blood and Porn
b) hopefully appreciate Sean Bean (a.k.a. Boromir in LOTR) as Ned Stark
c) ogle Jon Snow, the bastard son of Ned
d) despise the bitchy Sansa (who reminds me of an entitled sorority girl), daughter of Ned
e) catch yourself saying "Seven Hells!!!!" instead of your typically used expletives.
