When the series first came out I read the first book and stopped because it was too slow. So I'm not going to bother now, the TV show will be a good summary

Oh. My. God. James absolutely obliterated the island tonight. The last time there was so much destruction, Obi Wan Kenobi had to take a seat on the Falcon after the Death Star said "hi and bye" to Leia's homeworld.
I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

no kidding? first book is a prelude, 2nd really picks up and 3rd is a crescendo. who do u like feather? some of my other favs, pratchett(discworld), gaiman, zelazny, and classics(milton,virgil, homer)
GoT came out around the same time as Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen so I preferred the Malazan series for the action and epicness. That said it's become very hard to follow the series, I'm having difficulty reading The Crippled God, need to find a series summary somewhere
Otherwise more recent writers, Patrick Rothfuss I highly rate for the writing and story, Scott Lynch for plot and action ... I read Joe Abercombie's First Law and thought it was alright, overhyped really.
Gaiman and Zelazny are my favourites too, huge huge fan; pretty much read everything Gaiman from the comics to the novels. I do wish he would stop the distractions with all the other stuff and concentrate on a meaty novel like American Gods or Neverwhere again.
I assume you would've read Zelazny's Amber chronicles, did you read his Lord of Light? One of my fave scifi.
I'll add Moorcock's Elric of Melibone to the list of classics.

Yes, Chronicles of Amber still one of my favs! Lord of Light was excellent as well. Agree with the sentiment regarding Gaiman, write! Loved the Sandman series. Will have to check out some of your other authors as well. You read Good Omens? Great intro to Pratchett.

Yeah I read Good Omens, I read the early Pratchetts but grew out of them. I also read Gaiman is beginning work on the American Gods sequel, plus the original novel is being turned into a TV series.
