I found an interesting article about the upcoming Game of Thrones that I thought you would want to read as well.
George RR Martin’s novels start filming on Monday and the fans cannot wait
A Game of Thrones, HBO’s adaptation of the first book in a series of fantasy novels by George RR Martin, isn’t due to hit our screens until spring next year. But it doesn’t take long gazing into the enchanted fireplace of the internet to discover that anticipation for this show is all the way up to eleventy. There’s a series of blogs and forums devoted to a show that doesn’t even start filming until Monday.
For the uninitiated – that is, people who don’t gleefully buy 600-page books from the nerd section of Waterstone’s – A Game of Thrones is the first book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series. These books are very long, very popular and very, very good. Martin is often touted as America’s Tolkien. The mass of fannish enthusiasm for the books is such that Neil Gaiman, another genre favourite, felt the need to respond to the clamour for a new volume in the series with a blogpost called “George RR Martin is not your bitch”.
