I don't see how you think it is confusing. I have not read the books and am following just fine. I think the problem with most people is that they want things answered "now" instead of letting the story take you in. They may be vague about certain things but since it is a series, they will eventually explain it. That is part of letting the story and characters develope.

What the fuck does vampires have to do with anything?

And what is the vampire diaries?

ok them not being vampires definitely intrigues me more, since that's half the reason I turned it off cause I thought it was going to be another one of "those" series... but still, what the fuck are white walkers?

This may explain more of what white walkers are.

I don't know why every one assumes they are vampires. I was thinking it was more of a Yeti than anything else.

The dwarf is the queen’s brother. The other brother and the queen are the ones that got caught fucking.
Found this that explains the family trees. It helped me out a bit. I think they assumed every one read the book. There wasn't much of a character introduction.

The two Targaryen brother and sister gross me out. The way he was touching her was nasty.

So far it is pretty good. I am interested in how big the dire wolfs are going to get. The mom was huge. They did mention it was a cross breed.
