China and the Game of Thrones

In 2009, we were in Beijing to adopt Kiersten.  While there, we got to walk around and shop at many stores.  One of which was a book store.  In the book store, I saw plenty of popular artists.  One book that stood out was The Game of Thrones, by George RR Martin.  We had recently started listening to it on disc.  I picked up the book and looked at it.  It was in Pinyin.  They had all the books he had written on display.

The other day, I went to the library and was lucky enough to find season 2 & 3 of the show.  If you have not read/listened/watched this series, you need to check it out.  The books are really well written.  There are lots of characters to keep track of, but I have enjoyed it.  The show is one of the better shows out there.  It is for adults, but it has really high production values.  The actors who portray the characters from the book are spot on.  I wonder if the show is available in China?  They probably will have a fan base.
