Thankfully, not in real life.
In Westeros,
however, a long summer will draw to a close and bring the foreboding chills of
winter. In George R.R. Martin's enormously complex fantasy world, seasons can
last years and as the smallfolk say, a long summer means a longer winter.
The TV series Game of Thrones and its
accompanying book series have enthralled millions of fans across all ages and
cultures. There's something about (*SPOILERS*) betrayal, gruesome
murders, dragons, incest, watching Sean Bean die, and Kit
Harington that really brings people together.
The show’s popularity stems not only from loyal
reads of the A Song of Ice and Fire series it’s based on, but the quality ofthe show’s writing, production and actors.
In this first episode, we’re introduced to the
different highborn families contending for control of their medieval,
magic-shadowed land.
Main characters mean nothing to Martin’s
ruthless pen, because when you play the game of thrones, you win or you die.
