Question for htose that have read the books....

I'm reading book 2, but from this thread I gathered that some stuff that happened in the show was from book 3, and likewise some book 2 stuff seems to be put off until season 3.....Now, in the show, whoever burned down Winterfell was left for us to guess...and I don't want to find out who it was until Season 3. So should I perhaps skip some of Bran or Theon's sections towards the end of Book 2? Is it revealed who does it in the book?

Yes, it is revealed in Theon's last chapter I believe.

Thanks a lot man. Will def skip Theon's last jaun...and possibly Bran's just to be safe.

Also, I can see now why so many say that book 2 was so different...but I gotta say I prefer the way they did things. I like Bronn in the show so I'm glad that he has the more prevalent role as commander of the city watch vs the other guy, who would have been a useless character to introduce.

Apparently Dominic West turned down a "substantial" role in the upcoming season, and speculation is that it was the part of Mance Rayder. Damn it, McNulty!

I'm probably stupidly late to the party with this, but I found this video hilarious. Has Season 2 spoilers so if you're still catching up then don't watch it.

First introduction to the series was the show. Couldn't wait for Season 3, so I had to read the third book. Still highly anticipating the third season.

Finally on book 5. Book 4 was a bit longer to get through than book 3, but book 5 is starting off great. Super keen for season 3 to start!

When the series started, I gave up on it after episode one. I tried a second time and kept going. Glad I did. Awesome series.

Ciaran Hinds is Mance Rayder. Weird. Don't get me wrong, he's a great actor, but he's also 59. I didn't picture Mance any older than 40, and honestly probably younger than that.

Yeah, I've come to that resolution as well. Seems like every season the additions get bigger and bigger. As long as Salma Hayek doesn't play Arianne Martell, I'm cool.
