How's this for irony: Everyone posts the trailer for "A Game of Thrones", and amazon sends me this email:

Guten Tag,

Nach Auskunft des Verlags bzw. Herstellers wird der folgende Titel leider nicht mehr aufgelegt:

George R. R. Martin "A Dance with Dragons: Book 5 of A Song of Ice and Fire"

Dieser Artikel musste nun endgültig aus Ihrer Bestellung gestrichen werden.

Before I'd always gotten "delay" emails for the book - this one says the publisher told them that at least the edition I ordered won't come out at all.

Deadwood is intricately plotted and well-characterized. Many female characters, not all of whom are prostitutes. Sex and violence and notably filthy language, also (period-appropriate) racism and sexism and anti-semitism, I'm sorry to say. And since the show was cancelled and the showrunner was hoping for a movie or two later on to wind up the plotlines (that never happened), the third season sort of falls on its face in the final episode (after a phenomenal pair of episodes preceding it). Still worth watching, I felt, though it does horrible things to my accent whenever I watch the series again (since I already have a tendency to sound like half the characters on it anyway).

Sounds interesting! Thanks for the rec - I'll have a look.
