Gaming the Thrones

HBO's take on "A Game of Thrones" starts this weekend.

I actually wish I had HBO. I've seen the clips from the show and I've read the books. I have to say that what little I've seen is pretty true to the books.

It's not exact, mind you, but I'd be shocked if the tv series stays exactly true to the books.

The books are pretty f*cked-up. The tv series will - no doubt - be f*cked-up for tv, but I doubt it will go as far as the books.

If it does, it's going to blow minds.
