      I had written off the IP after thrones ended so poorly and I haven’t read the source material for this show, so I didn’t go into season one with very high expectations. It blew me away, I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to season two.

      Just praying I don’t get hurt again…

        Only reason I gave it a chance was that the source material was complete and considered well written, and having read it after season 1 I can confirm show should be in good place. Even if it isn’t I don’t care, since unlike Game of Thrones the source material is actually available.

      I really enjoyed it. I haven’t read the source material and don’t know how faithful to it it was, but the show holds up very well on its own. Looking forward for Season 2!

      Pretty good and then it ended on a cliff hanger so I finished it through the book instead of waiting around for 2+ years. Book was very good.
