Also, that's 8 years to wait for a 1 episode battle that sewed it up all neatly. I would have rather have them draw out the battle into at least 2 episodes since it supposed to be the "grand reveal", and kill off some primary characters...but now they have 7 more episodes to recover, deal with King's Landing, King or Queen in the North, alliances, etc...

There are only 3 more episodes, not 7.

Same.  Martin just doesn't seem like he is really interested in finishing them.

The show is fun though.  Not as good as the books for sure but talking with people about the show is half the fun.

The most optimistic I can be is that he adapts The Winds of Winter to be a conclusion to the series and scraps A Dream of Spring entirely. Expecting 2 more books seems implausible at this point.

I haven't read all of the books and I'm not sure if I'll get around to them or not.   Where did the books end in relation to the show?

Wait, we're not getting 10 episodes this season??  Crap!  Now I really feel cheated out of the the 8 years of hype.  :banghead:

Sorry, I meant to write Tyrion. I think I was writing about Theon in the same post and just mashed-up the names. LOL my bad.
