I started reading A Game of Thrones after my friends and I first played Fantasy Flight Games' boardgame in the mid-2000s. I read the first few books and became very excited after it was rumored that HBO was pursuing the rights to the series. I distinctly remember talking about that possibility with my manager over dinner one night in California, after a company training. He was also reading the series.
The first season of Game of Thrones aired in 2011 and I remember that early that season my mother called us interrupting a Sunday episode, and asked us to turn on the television. It was May 1, 2011, and President Obama had just announced the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden.
I'm pleased that HBO corrected some of the errors of Martin’s unfocused later books. I'm also very surprised how the series has entered the mainstream popular culture. I'm excited to see how HBO finishes the series and what is to come. Chaos is a ladder....
