Looks like George Martin's Sword of Fire and Ice series will be an HBO series in the near future, with each book fueling 1 season of the series. This looks like it could be really cool for fans of fantasy and genre television.

I hope that they stay true to the feel of the books and don't try to change them too much. There are so many prominent characters (and many of them die after a short or long while) that I would guess the tone would have to be rather gritty and fatalistic, somewhat like the new Battlestar Galactica.

A thread on this already edists over in Media.

So, again (really, this is starting to get absurd) *thunk*
