Winter is over, but that doesn't mean the drama is done — the third season of Game of Thrones is upon us. In case you missed it, HBO's hit show based on the book series A Song of Ice and Fire made its return to living rooms on Sunday. But before you jump back into the battle over the Iron Throne, catch up with seasons past online, and download the ebook versions of author George R.R. Martin's first two novels, Game of Thrones and Clash of Kings, to get an in-depth look at the world of Westeros.

Find out how to get your GoT on between new episodes, and then tell us which character has you hooked on the fantasy story.

You'll need an HBO cable subscription to access this app. HBO Go for iOS offers both seasons one and two on demand with interactive features. Explore a map of Westeros and Essos, and get to know the extensive characters with the Guide to House profiles.

Using the HBO Go app for Xbox? Download Xbox SmartGlass for iOS, Windows, Windows Phone, and Android as an interactive viewing companion.

Starting earlier this year, HBO allowed movies, shows, and specials from the app to be viewed on TV displays via AirPlay or HDMI. If you've got a friend with an HBO account, perhaps you could entice them to come over with some sweet wine in a royal goblet worthy of the royals in King's Landing.
