Tyrion made a speech about how horrible it was to watch Geoffery whip an innocent prostitute to death for his own amusement. Then he started dancing to Devo's "Whip It." The books are so much more complex and intelligent.
Yes, there are many spoilers in this for those that aren't pirating the newest season or have no HBO. Then again, who cares about spoilers, the book has been out for years.
You harpies are up in arms every time the authorities execute what might be an innocent man but when it comes to innocent dwarfs you forgo the protests in favour of jesting and jeering?!
I tend not to read novelizations of movies and tv shows. Despite the odd sincere attempt to close plot holes and add depth to the story they are almost always inferior to the media they are based on.
