There's one hell of a dragon egg hidden in Game of Thrones season one. Turns out one of the many heads on a spike decorating King's Landing belonged to ex-president George Bush. If you keep your eyes peeled when King Joffrey takes Sansa Stark to gaze upon the spiked head of her dead father around 12 minutes in, you'll notice that one of the heads looks slightly familiar. Show creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss explained in their DVD commentary (from Season 1, episode 10) that the decapitated head is actually George Bush.

George W. Bush's decapitated head appeared on Game of Thrones [Updated]

That would be handy while reading. I'm the type that always wants to know where I'm at when reading.

It's a free app. I recommend it. You can highlight pretty much anywhere and it tells you about it. Only problem is its just westeros. If you want to see Essos you have to pay

this would be good to follow brienne of tarth and arya.both of these characters do alot of moving around in westeros.

alright, wife just gave me a 4 book set by Martin. It says it "includes Game of Thrones"

The entire title is "A Song of Ice and Fire"

Is this the entire Game of Thrones set?

Your missing the fifth book "A Dance with Dragons." Martin is still planning to write two more books.

I have a feeling this show won't last for all 7 potential books unfortunately... That's a lot of seasons especially if they make more than just the 3rd book into two seasons. Hope I'm wrong.

I dunno the Sopranos had 6 seasons and they could have easily gone a couple more.

There's already a thread about it.

The creators just announced that next season will be the last. Terrible news.

 

[Spartacavolus]

I am glad I watched the last 2 years before reading the books because the faces help me keep track. I have always been bad with names and my mind wanders while I read for too long. I would have had to reread a lot.
