The name of the show was adapted from the first book of George R.R. This American fantasy drama series was made for HBO in 2011 by David Benioff and D.B. What’s not to look for? You get a gritty and steamy series set in a fantasy world involving a lot of characters willing – or unwilling – to be part of a scheme to rule a continent. That is, if you are not raving over it yourself. Fan or not, you have definitely come across someone who raved over the latest Game of Thrones episode.
