It’s obvious from watching recent episodes of Game of Thrones that the slave-owning cities that Daenerys has been liberating really like harpies, but there’s never been any discussion of them in the TV show–just harpy statues everywhere. I’m wondering if this is something that was explained in the books but got left out due to time constraints.

Sometimes having a broad general knowledge of fantasy literature can lead to a story you don’t know being given away far in advance. For example, there’s a scene in episode three of Game of Thrones where one of the characters talks about the cultural significance of dragons and how his ancestors came to power riding on their backs. Right there I can tell where a major part of the story is going, because one of the best known characters in fantasy is Daenerys Targaryen, Mother of Dragons.
