RE: Spider Coccoon

Wonderful job @veryspider. I stopped watching at season 5 hoping another book would come out before the series ended. That didn't workout well. I need to finish the series now and things are so different.

Sort:  

They certainly have diverged, and probably should be taken as two different things, haha...

Thank you for visit and comment, @tryskele :)

You're welcome @veryspider. Funny, every other book series that have been turned to a movie or series I have been very accepting of having to change things for various reasons. I don't expect exact interpretation, obviously with this series you can't. Daenerys being 13 yr old when she's married off to Drogo. Missandei is close in age to Daeny. My reason is the opposite. I didn't want the series to ruin the books LOL. I pretty much have figured out Jon's parentage. I just need to suck it up and watch it. To be honest, I didn't like that Shireen was killed off. Nobody is safe in Martin's world.

To be honest, I think both excel in different things so I can kind of appreciate the two different mediums.... I think Martin's struggling with actually writing these days, too, sadly...

I think he his too. He's done a few other projects in the world, but not the 6th book. I think he was waiting to see how things end to keep his timeline intact. Since his chapter structure is completely different than most books.

Don't get me wrong, I love the series. The books equally. They are each their own. I think anyone who hasn't read the books needs to. The Red Wedding is one of the best points as to why. In keeping with the book community there, no spoilers from, except there are some major differences. Both still succeed in shocking the audience.

Yea, hopefully he will manage to complete the book series !
