It's a terrific book, but you have to be ready for a shifting perspective story. No two chapters *in a row* are told from the viewpoint of the same character, and, as you're seeing from the TV show, there are a *lot* of characters.
And, not surprisingly, things have been simplified for the screen.
Also, not to spoil anything, but...the full end of the story has not been told yet. Book 5 is due out in July (finally!) with (in theory) two more books planned.
(Edit: pesky grammar bit that only I would probably be bothered by. And a factual error corrected - the bit in *asterisks*. Oopsie.)
