They cut the flashback out Ned had one about that day when he was injured after Jaime had attacked him. Seven against three and only Ned and Reed survived It's way too much to ask but a couple books about the lead up to the war and the actual war would be amazing for me to read.
I had never seen that comic before, good looks for that
GM had an interview not too long ago commenting on it:
From a recent New Jersey Monthly article:
NJMescribe the page to screen process.
GRRM: I’ve been very happy with everything. I think you can divide the show into three types of scenes, there’s the scenes in the books that they’ve translated to the screen, and I think they’ve done a wonderful job with those, those are rendered very, very well. The actors are great, the writing is great, the directing is great. There are the original scenes, scenes that are not in the books that David and Dan have added. Those are great too, I’ve been very pleased with the majority of those. The one thing I miss is the third category, the scenes in the books that never make it to the screen. Scenes that were cut, because some of those were good scenes. Good dialogue, good bits of business, and important in some cases, and I miss them, knowing the books as well as I do, and I watch the show, and I’m like, ‘Oh, this scene is going come! Oh, they cut that scene.”
NJM: Can you give an example of one of those scenes?
GRRM: Ned’s dream, after his leg is injured, the Tower of Joy scene. That was an important scene, an atmospheric scene, which would’ve translated [to the screen] really well. It would’ve had to be done in a very stylized manner, but I miss that.
