There is a character on the show, Khal Drogo who has basically become my
Just so happens, Jason Momoa has landed the part of Conan the Barbarian in the upcoming movie out this summer. And…it just so happens that Penguin is releasing, Conan the Barbarian by Michael Stackpole July 5th – a book based on the movie.
They even include photos from the movie in the middle of the book. My husband asked me if Conan was even a romance book. Pffffft hubs! Any book with Jason Momoa walking around in tattered clothing, with his moobs proudly displayed to the world is a romance book!
I hope Jason Momoa continues being typecast into these barbaric roles because apparently I was missing a savage warrior in my life. Have I asked hubs to grow out his hair, add 100 pounds of muscle weight, and slaughter something for me? Maybe I have.
So tell me what books I need to read, to experience more of these warrior-type men. I need recommendations because Game of Thrones is ending this weekend!

Why am I not surprised ;)
What? *innocent face*
*moob obsessed*
but Khal has a mutated moob now :(
*weeps* I'm in mourning.
Oh, You should try Spartacus - the Starz tv show that is all about savage-naked-moobelicius gladiators. Start with Spartacus Blood and Sand and move to Spartacus - Gods of the Arena A 6 episode mini series).
There is lots of blood and violence, but also lots of naked (full fronted) gladiators doing some other intersting things... =)
Dani - OH REALLY? *runs to turn on Starz*
Thanks!!!
I may have subscribed to HBO *just* to get HBOGO to watch Drogo. Not sure what I'm going to do after the season ends. ;(
Didn't @fictionvixen recently ask for some warlord book recs? You should ask her for her list.
I don't have any books to recommend. I just wanted to stop by and say that I totally support your Moob obsession. ;)
I need to get my brain out of romance land. Kahl and Daenerys have just been introduced (where I am in the book)and I have this epic relationship already built for them in my head. Somehow I don't think that is how it is going to go. But the dude is smokin hot.
You asked for recommendations....The Dark Tower series by Stephen King.
I was going to recommend Spartacus as well - lots of warrior men on that show! (I believe both seasons are available on Netflix if it's not playing right now.)
Eva - ooh..I will have to ask her (actually, it might have been KC)
Bells - thank you for the support
Jenny - Keep in mind this is not a romance series with a HEA. I'm skeered Jenny..SCARED!
And Dark Tower - my hubs keeps wanting me to read them...I don't want creepy/freaky though - are they?
Tracy - niiiice...*runs to Netflix*
A friend was just telling me about Spartacus. I think I might have to rejoin Netflix. :) She also mentioned Camelot (don't know if HBO or SHO), though I think that's a young King Arthur type-don't know if they have any man boobs there.
You know I share your Drogo love!
You've never seen Spartacus?!? Girl, you don't know what you've been missing!! (There's a scene in Spartacus Blood and Sand that my family members still refer to "horse cock" hint: it wasn't on a horse, lol)
I have no books to recommend, but you can just watch "300" with Gerard Butler over and over again (not that I have done that...) Plenty of moobs for everyone!
Mandi- Ok part of me knows there isn't a HEA but my brain can't help it! It seems a very intriguing match. Although isn't she just 13?
Dark Tower- yes it is a bit weird. It has to be since it is King. But they are pretty good and being made a mini series/movie. I thought it kind if similar to this situation.
I need to go check out Spartacus.
Jen
If you like Jason Mamoa, the check out Stargate Atlantis. He was the whole reason I watched the show every single week!
Dear Mandi,
You have inspired me to also ask my husband to grow out his hair, put on some epic muscle weight and cultivate his own pair of moobs, and slaughter something on my behalf like the sexy bastard he is. I'll let you know how it goes;)
I have become seriously obsessed with this man since the very first episode of GoT. I went and googled him and googled him until even *I* felt dirty :P He apparently has been smokin hot his entire life, from what my google results have concluded. LOL I will sooooooooo be seeing Conan now. And fanning myself the entire time. WHEW!
Helyce - there must be someone in Camelot with man boobs, yes? ;)
Patti - "horse cock" Smexy is intrigued..very intrigued!
Lizzie - I've never seen 300...I've failed the moob. I'm not worthy.
Jenny - srsly - I need to be there for you towards the end. Also - don't read my blog post at my blog tomorrow. It spoils a little. George Martin is definitely not a romance writer! I'm not sure my heart can take it.
In the book, I believe she is 13ish yes. But in the show she is portrayed as older.
Anon - I'm so checking that out!
Jenny - our hubs can run around in loin cloths and slaughter things for us! It will be epic!! I'll get the horses!
Pamela - I too conclude that his hotness has spanned years. Plus he is freaking 6'5. Jaysus, I'm lusting.
Ok...I have read every comment here and I am laughing and fanning myself at the same time! Holy hotness....6 foot 5!!!! I am seriously in love, and it is his pecs that draw me in every time! Spartacus....lots of man candy there! The "horse" scene is unbelievable! My girls and I zoom in and pause each time! Ladies...I must confess....my hubby does have those moobs and I love placing my hands all over them, squeezing and...got to go (panting, searching for husband now!)
6'5"?? This conversation has to stop. I am getting bothered. Holy sex on a stick.
I'm all in favor of the continued type casting for Jason Momoa. :)
LOL ya'll are funny
I didn't know about Game of Thrones ending this weekened though...grr to that I say!
Mandy - Your hubs has moobs?? I'm so jealous. JEALOUS I tell you. :)
Jenny - What will I do when the show ends this Sunday? This convo must never end. It is my last resort ;)
FV - *fingers crossed* for more typecasting!
Nixie - I know! so sad! I assume it will come back for a season 2 next year. But still :(
I hope they come back with a season 2. This one was SO intense. lol I'd have to watch something else before I could sleep.
You definitely need to watch 300 but just stay away from Gerry, he's mine!
Haha! I've seen and loved 300. Whole lotta yum in that movie
Lol, these comments are great! Made me giggle :)
I also was going to recommend Sparticus. Both seasons are fantastic! And...not many shows on tv have full-frontal maleness, I'm so down with that! *fans self*
I'm glad that DIK went straight to the "most knowledgeable source" on moobs! Smexy is the authority. ;)
Also, u need to run, not walk, to rent 300! Its moobalicious!
Nixie - I know..I get so wound up watching this show that my eyeballs go O_O.
Beth - Oh really? Are we going to have a throw down over Gerry? I do love myself some Gerry ;)
redzsm - Ok! I will def rent 300. I actually think my hubs has seen it - this isn't right ;)
If you like some fantasy and warriors, you should read Robert Jordan - Wheel of Time. And did you ever see or read Terry Goodkind - Legend of the Seeker?
No..but thank you for the recs!
I was also going to suggest Spartacus, but I think that may have been mentioned once or twice already :)
Have you seen Jason Momoa in Stargate Atlantis? He's quite warrior like in that...
No! But people have been sending me pics of him in that show. Will check it out!
