I finished reading that a month or so ago, in anticipation of the HBO series. I came away very pleased. By the end, there were 3-4 characters that I viewed as my "favorite" and not really sure where the 2nd book will go. I'll probably wait until after the HBO series to start it, but I'm looking forward to it.
