Don't have cash for HBO or Starz?

Premium cable can be expensive or, if you're like me, you like to marathon an entire season of a show instead of waiting impatiently for the season to unfold.  (Thank you, Netflix for indulging me on this.) Well, you Game of Thrones and Outlander fans, have we got the solution for you: Check out the book versions of your favorite series! See all the additional people killed and maimed in books 1-5 of George R.R. Martin's awesome fantasy epics before the new season starts on April 12 on HBO: [caption id="attachment_1299" align="aligncenter" width="300"] The book series thus far. Will George RR Martin be able to finish the next book before HBO finishes it for him?[/caption] See how much manlier and brawnier Jamie is (and how different Frank is) in book 1 of Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series before season 1, part 2 starts on April 4 on Starz: [caption id="attachment_1300" align="aligncenter" width="200"] Book 1 in the series of, currently, 8 big ol' books[/caption] (Need more Jamie and Claire?  Ask a librarian about interlibrary loan to get your fix.)
