It is known: HBO’s Game of Thrones[/i] will continue its epic tale into a fourth season.

The network just greenlit the show for another batch of episodes to premiere next year. HBO didn’t specify the number of episodes, but that’s standard operating procedure and every indication is that the show will continue with its 10-episode format.

The announcement was expected. Thrones[/i] returned to series-high ratings on Sunday night and stands as the network’s biggest current moneymaker. The show’s annual production cost (north of $55 million per season) is offset by strong international and DVD sales. If ratings trends for Thrones[/i] and HBO’s top-rated True Blood[/i] continue this year, Thrones[/i] could replace the vampire drama as the network’s most-popular show.

Creative details for the fourth season have not been announced, but Thrones[/i] is expected to primarily use material from back half of the lengthy third book in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire saga, A Storm of Swords[/i], as well as pull in content from other novels in the series.

 
oh so they're going to split the third book in to two seasons so the series doesn't catch up to the books quite as fast. i was wondering how that was going to work since a book per season would likely have caught up with the books before the next book was released.
 
I actually never read the books, do you think it's good that they are splitting the third book into two (assuming that's what they are doing? Possibly could give them more time to go into better detail as I have heard that complaint from a lot of people that have read the books.
 
absolutely, I just finished storm of swords (the third book) and its so damn good. So much happens and the detail would be necessary to get the full feeling from the story. just my two cents.
 
i agree that i'd like the greater detail. however, i wish they had longer seasons instead of splitting it in to two seasons like that. it's w.e. though.

if you haven't read the books, i'd highly recommend doing so. absolutely fantastic books. i've never been so stoked for a new book to come out (The 6th) in my life.

you can actually download all of the books in a pdf file online. that's what i did and then read most of them at work on my computer.
 
I'm thinking that once this semester is over and summer starts I'm going to read all the books. The only thing is after watching the show I feel obligated to be constantly drinking wine, so I may be getting hammered every time I read.
