I'm actually surprised there isn't a topic for this series already.

Anyways. I had heard a lot of good things about this series, and had a few friends who were trying to get me to read them, and finally I started. I'm just about done with the second book, and then I'm watching the show one season at a time after I finish the books since I like forming my own mental images of the characters.

Anyone else read them? They're super fantastic, and if you haven't, I'd highly recommend giving them a go. Each book is pretty long, so it does take some time to read them, but man are they worth it.

Also, if you have read them, favourite characters? I'm really fond of Catelyn Stark, Jon Snow and Tyrion Lannister.
