Really interesting discussion here. Thanks for sharing, Matthew! "What the books do really, really well is world creation; Martin has crafted a complex, free-standing fictional world with elaborate, millennia-old histories for every character lineage and geographic location. What the show does better than the books, in my opinion, is to present the actual narrative in a distilled and concise form. So, where Martin tends to fall into bottomless Westerosian history rabbit holes describing dead rulers, their numerous offspring, their heraldry, their velvet doublets, and what they ate during some long-ago tournament, the show pares things down to the core characters and locales, numerous though they may be." grantland/blog/hollywood-prospectus/post/_/id/79360/the-new-gods-vs-the-old-is-game-of-thrones-better-as-a-show-or-a-series-of-books
