Because I've already seen the first 3 seasons. So I know pretty much everything that is going to happen already with the exception of some characters Ithat didnt make it into the tv series. t's just a lot of time to invest in reading the books.
It is, but the devil is in the details. The show is awesome, but its basically A Song of Ice and Fire for dummies. The Red Wedding was great... if you don't know what else was missing. Robb's bannermen are all but non existant in the show. There is no mutten leg bitch slap, Grey Wind goes out like a fucking gangster, the Black Fish was never even there, etc. The show has little of the back stories, sub plots and prophecies. The actors are amazing, but the show cant put you in the heads of the characters, and where the books are very often subtle about things that the show hits you over the head with like a hammer, and other shit has been completely omitted.
