Never heard of the books myself, but they sound quite interesting, & HBO has a good track record for quality TV.

I've read a couple,they are intricate political books set in a fantasy and magical land.My husband enjoyed them more than I did which as he's not really into fantasy all that much was a surprise.

I started to read book one but lost interest early on due to the way the story was written but I may just dig the book out and try again.

A later update to your link shows that HBO still seem to be interested

Ooops...

However, according to the post at DS which bumped the thread...

The books are very hard to read but I suspect that they may well work better as a visual drama..:erm:
