Got back to watching Game of Thrones, I'm in the 2nd season now. I just finished the 4th book. Anyone who has read the books and is also watching it could tell me more or less where the tv series is, I mean, in which part of the story? I'm not sure if season 4th is about the 4th book or still the 3rd book.
It's a little confusing mate as the producers of the show have chopped and changed a few storylines here and there in order to make things work better within a TV show structure. Essentially Season 4 of the tv series is mostly based on the second half of Book 3 (A Storm of Swords). As you probably know there is a
lot that happens in the second half of Book 3 so there are some pretty crazy episodes coming up this season.
Just to confuse everyone more the producers may also slip in parts of book 4 and even 5.
It'll get really confusing come season 5 of the series, as books 4 and 5 run concurrently alongside each other. Essentially they are happening at the same time, but one focuses on the characters in Westeros, the other on those at the Wall or across the Narrow Sea.
And that's not even mentioning what they'll have to do if the show catches up with the books!
