I'm loving the Game of Thrones series, but not having read the books it has been a bit difficult keeping up with all the various families, houses and their entanglements. The Game of Thrones Wiki has been a great resource to clear up my questions, but I wish I'd found Magdalena Maslowska's Illustrated Guide to Houses and Character Relationships sooner — it would have cleared up a lot of my confusion. Here's just a detail, centered on the Lannisters:
(Hat tip: Francisco Palm.) You can explore the details in the full-size version (click to enlarge), but beware spoilers if you're not caught up to Season 3 as it's showing in the US.
On the other hand, you could just work with the (slightly NSFW) Game of Thrones Cheat Sheet below the jump. It's not terribly helpful, but it captured pretty well how I had to refer to most of the characters for the first season and a half or so!
If you haven't started Game of Thrones yet, why not take a look at it this weekend? It's a great series rich in intrigue, politics and story: don't be turned off by the fantasy theme, which is actually a fairly light element (especially early on). Whatever you get up to, have a great weekend!
