*nods* I got about halfway through book four before giving it up as a lost cause. Skeeviness aside (and there's a lot of it, which yeah, at least in book form you can turn the page), my tolerance for the never-ending misery proved limited.
I've only seen the first episode, but judging from that it seems like they're going with the "gratuitous violence and sex (because hey, we're on HBO so we can) > actual characterization" thing, and I find that I pretty much don't care.
