Some elements loosely follow the books, but there’s quite a bit that is unique to the show. Some may say that’s a good thing, others bad. Many of the characters share the same names as those mentioned in the books. Don’t go in expecting a truly faithful adaptation, but from a production standpoint it’s a visually beautiful piece of art. Many of the actors and actresses portray compelling characters, and as others have mentioned there is the unique genetic dynasty that is by far one of the most interesting pieces of the show. Lee Pace (Brother Day) is captivating in his role.
