Yes, the story significant changes. After seeing the first episodes, I was unsure whether it was just going to crash, but 4th episode nailed it.
The story jut has far too much exposition needed early on. TV Series doesn't have +300 pages to establish everything, and add interesting thoughtful dialogue and some action along and carry the story too.
It's just can't be done. The way they have managed to set things up here is ingenious, and have to say I don't know, how it could have been done better, while keeping the people not knowing the books engaged.
First three episodes are very comparable to first book, getting pieces and bits line up for follow up. With fourth, they truly got in the groove and catched the spirit and style of source material. And it feels new and exciting even when you know the books, without taking anything out.
Remarkable, how well this episode turned out, and I hope and trust they can keep it up.
