That doesn’t change the fact that in many respects HOTD has a political echo in our times. So when Condal drains moral clarity from Martin’s narrative over and over again to inject happenstance—and in so doing betrays Martin’s characters—it feels triply problematic. And should. — PolitiTweet.org

LOTR was the fantasy narrative of the 20th c.—nothing else came close. I’d argue that GoT is the fantasy narrative of the 21st c. and—so far—nothing else has come close (I put Harry Potter in a separate category for a number of reasons). Its portrayal on the small screen matters. — PolitiTweet.org
