hi, i just ordered the books, and stumbled on this picture:
SPOILER
http://s1.directupload.net/images/130813/x5rp98hw.jpg

so ym question: how big of a spoiler is it for me? :(

Don't worry, this is established quite early on.

Not a big one. The character shown is the heir at the start, so it is really just a question of *when* this happens.

Ok thanks. Thats calming me down and making me look forward to the arrival of the books again :)

Yeah, Palpatine showing up in the third book really just came out of the blue.

I honestly didn't expect it to cross with star wars universe but once the jedi order is established in 4th book they become even more awesome than in clone wars.
My only regret is that Jar-Jar is not present since he's my fav character

does not spoil anything, just dont let anyone ruin other stuff, like red wedding or which characters dies

Almost none. Maybe a bit from the first book. Anyway the only annoying thing about a Song of Ice and Fire is that G.R.R. Martin hasn't finished them yet. I just hope it won't happen as with Dune :/. That's why I refuse to buy/read them for now :)

GRRM has actually fielded that question on his "Not a Blog" from his website. He said the question was rather rudely posed to him, noting he was fat, old, and probably wouldn't finish the series before he died.
His response, was that even though he is fat and old, he has left a lot of great notes on how he wants the Series to conclude. He has even fleshed out a lot of the series in his notes. So, he said if the unfortunate should happen to him, someone could take his notes and finish the story the way GRRM envisions it.

Big spoiler but so much shit happens in Game Of Thrones so this big spoiler didn't spoil everything for you.

That wasn't a spoiler but this one is.

Come back you COWARD ... I'LL BITE YOUR KNEE CAPS OFF!!!!!

Not that much. Start reading the books, they're awesome :D

I don't see how you could consider a picture of a character receiving only a flesh wound to be a spoiler.
