I literally could not be more excited! I've been waiting for this for forever. The series A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin has been an absolute favorite of mine for a long while. All I can say is WATCH THIS SHOW! It is going to be epic.
Game of Thrones is in itself a very low fantasy world. It is not placed in "our" world, but it is very close. There is magic, but it is on the fringes of the story. The story is about the people and the politics that surround them. That may sound boring to some people, however if the adaptation is anywhere close to Martin's brilliant writing, we will NOT be disappointed.
It would not be easy to discuss what the story is about exactly. There is so much going on, and you will be at the edge of your seat for it all. At least, with the book that is the way it is. Being on HBO, I'm sure it will be full of bloody violence, nudity, and the adult themes that persist in the books themselves.
WATCH THIS SHOW!!!
