I read the books about five years ago on a challenge from a friend on an Ice & Fire, GoT web site, and liked them a lot better than expected. Great world-building, lots of character complexities, and five young, but flawed heroes who have to come together to save the world, with a lot of help from many. many others. I didn't find Dragonmount until after the show started. As to the show, my initial reaction is ... much better than expected. A show like this, it's better to talk it around with other knowledgeable folks, so here I am.

Welcome, welcome @first when not last! I'm new here too! I definitely agree that communities like this are invaluable in digesting a series this huge (and it's fun too ? ). Glad to have you!
