I don't see how this can be the case going forward. There is so much sprawl and overlapping time frames that I don't think it would be possible. This is definitely the case with A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons (books 4 and 5). These two books cover the exact same time frames, but just focus on different characters. GRRM wrote in a note at the end of A Feast for Crows, "I wanted to tell the whole story of half the characters, rather than tell the half the story of all the characters."So, while HBO season one is pretty much in lock step with A Game of Thrones, the rest will not be so directly correlated. I would imagine that one character in particular - Danerys - will have a story arc in the show that outpaces the novels. For one, her character is probably the favorite of most TV viewers. Secondly, her story moves next to nowhere in Books 2 and 3, so they will have to work ahead to keep her story interesting.Do the show seasons correspond to the books? In other words, is season 1 'A Game of Thrones', ending exactly where the first book ended? So season 2 will be 'A Clash Of Kings', even though the series is titled AGOT?
