Book Cersei is a villain, in every sense of the word. She's not a victim in any sense of the word. She's despicable. Evil. Out for number one. And that makes everything that happens to her seem so much more cathartic for the readers. It's about a bad person finally getting both what she deserves and what she has earned, not just from the kingdom but from her family. I think Headey has done the character a disservice, and the show is a bit weaker for it. Fortunately they've gotten so much else right...

I don't agree.
Book Cersei is a victim, but pretty much all of it occurs before the books actually start.
