SciFi Wire reports that HBO has picked up ten episodes of the television adaptation of George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series – they're calling it The Game of Thrones, after the first book. The first season will feature Lena Headey, Sean Bean, and Peter Dinklage, among others.
If you haven't read Martin's books (there are currently four out of a planned seven), now's your chance. If you have read the books, I imagine that you're doing the jig of joy. Dance! Dance! Dance!
