Kinda confused. Why was Viserys so pissed at his sister? He said something about how he doesn't follow orders? From what I saw...I didn't see her try to do anything other than stop the army for a bit?

Which included him. I agree, that was kind of glossed over.

Looking through the book to find it, and I forgot that GRRM is too lazy to come up with chapter titles or anything. At least he names his chapters (facepalm). The book also has V's rage come really abruptly out of nowhere.

This series just keeps getting better and better.

It's been a long time since I watched anything on TV. (I usually wait until the dvd comes out.)

So, it's really hard to wait another week to watch the next episode. I hate it when the episode ends, and I can't just pop in another dvd and continue watching.

So I'm about half way through the third novel, and I have just one small complaint:

It seems well written, I'm not getting what all the fuss is about (it's good, but not super OMG amazing)....but what's with the gratuitous sex scenes in the books? I mean, it doesn't add a lot, and often seems unnecessary.

its a reflection of how GRRM is trying to write 'adult' fantasy.

haha this fits in well with your avatar. on topic: i agree, the sex appears to do nothing in terms of advancing the story line. i guess the author is just a horny nerd. is it just me or does Syrio Forel remind me of hte black guy from final fantasy XIII?

The third episode gives me faith. I don't watch a ton of TV, so I don't know if it normally takes time to work out the kinks, but it really seems to be developing well.
