Uh, no, I've absolutely read the books! That's why I tend to steer clear of familiar universes (at least post GoT) that tend to be just pale imitations of what they were on the page
Ah ok, then go with an open mind, forget the minutia details of the books, and focus on the big pattern. They basically pulled all the arcs of the 15 books, shaked them and ordered them to fit a visual narrative. It can be jarring at the beginning but trust me, most of their choices pay off.
Oh it is. For us who know the inside out of the story it's fun to have new materials, off page scenes we get to see on screen, theorizing on what they're doing. Even though everything comes into place at some point, the roads to go there are different. A new turning, and modernized.
That definitely makes it more enticing! It's actually been a while since I read at least the first few books, so I might not notice some changes unless they are drastic
Ah ah well there are some drastic ones straight in the first episode. They aged the protagonists to 20yo, so they don't start as baby shy teenagers. But again it makes for a better, less YA, type of show directly. And they introduced a "who is it" mystery to grab new watchers. But lore is respected.
