Also, without getting too off topic, book 3 will be split into two separate seasons. And i do believe i read that the chronology of the book will be shifted around to make the show more sensible. So maybe you have the right idea.
Would you say you really have to be into fantasy to enjoy these works? I read good reviews about the series (especially the books) but for some reason it still puts me off, being pretty much a fantasy illiterate (not considering Tolkien though).. .
