Three years later it comes out and we find out there will be at least one more and maybe two. He is re-reading it all now because it is so complex from what I hear that you need to get a refresher.
I bet that was the selling point for the mini series, the twists and turns of every plot, and sub plot. Unfortunately, the nuances of the book does not translate fully to the small screen. I mean Rob is 16, John is 15, the dire wolves being left out, and so many other things, small but important. I'm looking forward to the big battles, to see how they bring it to life. Tyrion on the other hand, is perfect due to the actor.
