GOT had a very strong fanbase for 15 years before the TV show. The show took it to a far wider audience, a lot of who then discovered the books.
As far as I'm aware the Sopranos didn't have the same initial fanbase or feedback into a book culture.

I'd suspect that people will still remember game of thrones in 20 years time and be discovering the books. As such I imagine the theme will have legs in the same way that TZ, Addams etc do.

The hobbit will also be remembered but I suspect for the book rather than the films. Maybe LOTR will be for both?

A Song of Ice and Fire (which is the book series) is massive and only eclipsed by Harry Potter in modern fantasy. HP though is fundamentally a childrens story. ASOIAF (GOT) is far closer to say Shogun

Be careful what you wish for. People saying that the main character should be the backglass.

Ever thought that the main person is actually Varys? He's the one who has manipulated Danny and everything in Kings Landing from the start

Possibly the only image they could use that would actually be worse than the LE one, so I'm guessing Stern will probably go for that.....

Got to admit it's growing on me.
Not sure why the pyramid looks all cracked
Strange spots of the spinner. What is the image actually of?

Weirdly GRRM has yet to mention the pin in his blog. Normally there are mentions of PC games etc. Just not that excited about it? Too busy celebrating his Emmys? Maybe is currently writing about it but is 2 years behind schedule? Would have thought it would have cropped up by now.

Anyone else now getting used to the art? They lost my LE order over it but I'll admit it's grown on me in the recent pics

Just wondering. Has anyone noticed a blue rose anywhere on the Premium? If not maybe the artist should have paid a bit more attention to the actual books.......

For non book readers it's probably been missed but for those who have read the books a few times t's a major link throughout the whole series.... Kind of like the Bale/Able references

Premium appeals to me a lot more than the ltd version. Looking forward to playing it and hopefully buying one
