I just saw the latest trailer for Game of Thrones and quite frankly I’m getting a little crazy with anticipation. One thing I enjoyed about the last season was not being a purist. I’d read all the books. (Okay, I still have halfway to go through Dance of Dragons but since The Winds of Winter won’t come out til next year I’m not in a hurry.) But what I’ve found fascinating is that changes have had to be made while the outline’s the same, things have become very different. So one thing I find myself doing while waiting for the fourth season to start one of my favorite activities is handicapping it. Because the fun thing having read the books I know what is going to happen but I don’t know when and how.
