Game of Thrones is one party I’m glad, even though I was late to it, that I didn’t miss it entirely.  I began watching the show in the beginning of season two and didn’t entirely pay too much attention because I hadn’t seen season one so nothing made sense to me. After buying season one on Blu-Ray, and re-watching season two, I’m in love with everything Game of Thrones, especially the graphic novel. This hardcover, a collection of the Dynamite Entertainment single issues, adapts the original fantasy novel written by George R. R. Martin. I missed out on the first few issues due to my lack of interest in the series (see a pattern developing?) but now I am quite enjoying the release of the graphic novel so I can read the story of Westeros and its dynastic struggles from the very beginning.
