My wife is reading the first book in the series now. I was hooked on the HBO series after the first ten minutes. It is really, really good and well done. Looking forward to the second season. I have the first four books in the series but haven't read them yet. I have read a little of George R. R. Martin's previous work which drew me to the series.Definitely watching this. I read all the books in the series. There is a bunch of sex and swearing in the books too. But I gotta say, the tv series has a lot more sex scenes than the book. (The HBO effect?)
I think you just need to go in knowing what you are in for. It's definitely an adult show, but a quality show as well. I'm really looking forward to season two.
(I think Arya is the coolest character.)
The books are great, I really like the tv show also but for me the books are 100 times better, George r r martin (the author) has created an amazingly rice world that the television series barely touches on, if your gonna read any books this year is highly recommended these.
And the Bible has violence, polygamy, adultery, incest, rape, homosexuality, prostitution... and that's just in Genesis.It has violence in it and so. Can you watch it by faith? Otherwise it's also Sin (Rom 14:23).
It’s a sad commentary on American morals that the sex is the thing that people object to. I find that sad, but it is true. I can describe an axe entering a person’s skull and no one objects, but if I describe a penis entering a vagina, there’s an outcry.
That's true, and that's because it's HBO. Realistically, Game of Thrones is very tame compared to a lot of their other shows I hear. Plus, Season 2 has been surprisingly so much more tame than Season 1 was in the sex department. Season 1 just started getting annoying with the constant graphic sex scenes. Season 2 seems to have meshed them well into the story in a way that actually works. They get their boobs in and it doesn't feel like it's just there simply to be there. It's still gritty and realistic without wasting time, which is good because the episodes always felt so short.There's a difference between sex in a story and what HBO does. Like I said I read the books and don't find them offensive at all. HBO just likes to fit boobs into every scene in increasingly stupid ways that add nothing to the story.
