Alicia’s Reviews > A Game of Thrones > Status Update

This is the first time I have watched a film version of a book before reading it. A bit slow at first, but considering the need to build multiple character's POVs, not as slow as I suspected. Can't help but wonder if I'd be more surprised at certain events that have already happened if I didn't watch the show, or if GRRM's writing fails to stir suspense. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for the moment.
