yum.
Figure this is likely worthy of its own thread.
very good opening episode.Never read the books, only ever watched the movie, so surprised how completely different it is to the movie.

Wow.
Me too, was genuinely shocked it was on that scale. Dreadful that it's not more well known.
Sequel set years after I think, not sure how closely they will tie everything back after one ep.
