| Interesting Take

I have rarely (ever?) heard original source material act as a spoiler for an adaptation before.  I like the show too, but I think that watching the show would spoil the books.  Sure, there is some commitment required for the books, of which mine has failed (only made it through 50% of Storm of Swords), but the payoff seems soooo much sweeter.  There was like a hundred page stretch in Clash of Kings where I could not put the freaking book down!
