A game of thrones
Having heard that the tv series is going to soon overtake the books, I've started watching the former. If I'm going to be spoilered by a bunch of teevee watchers, I may as well jkoin them.
Got to a few bits (e.g. commander Mormont being whatsisface's father) and thought "I don't remember that". Then I tried working out how long it had been since I actually read the earlier books. The earliest record amazon has of my ordering it was a feast for crows in 2005. And I'd read the earlier books before that came out. So yes, I suppose I should expect to have the odd plot point or two fade away after a decade or more...
