but, a lot of the plot has been different - there were no Merle and Daryl in the novels... Tyreese joined the group right after they left Atlanta and before they got to Hershel's farm... Andrea never slept with Shane or the Governor... the Governor was more of brutal warlord from the beginning in the books, while he was more of a ruthless politician in the TV show... the group stuck together a bit more, too. Andrea, Tyreese, Michonne, etc were all together with, Rick, Glenn, Maggie, etc when they fought off The Governor... oh, and it was Dale that got his leg amputated in the books, not Hershel.
