For those of you who have not read the books. If you try and predict the plot line, you will be wrong; if you think a character is to important to die, thou are wrong.
These books literally follow no convention with regard to traditional literary story lines. There is no 'ending' and certainly not a happy one, it is simply the continuation of events directed by human intent, and controlled by God, just like real life. Which is what makes the books so appealing to readers.
Leave it up to HBO to take out straight sex sceanes only to make up homosexual range where it never existed. Just another sign of the media trying to corrupt our society into accepting homosexuality as an acceptable practice.
Oh well, the shows are still decent and skier_boy26 needs to read the books.
And Rome was better.
