I'm halfway through S2Ep3...and I'm disgusted... This Rafe bloke is destroying books I deeply love. There is simply no purpose to so many of his/the producers changes. This is truly "inspired by" or "based on"...in the most loosely applicable sense. They are literally taking themes from the books and creating their own story...a story that doesn't even remotely follow details and plot lines accurately. I get that at times Jordan was verbose and that there must be some changes in any adaptation...but the things that are true to the books are occasional homage and by far in the minority. What do others think???
