By the end of the time of prosperity, and the summer, which lasted almost a decade, is dying. Around the center of the power of the Seven Kingdoms, the Iron Throne, a conspiracy is maturing, and at this difficult time the king decides to seek support from Eddard Stark's friend of youth. In a world where everyone - from the king to the mercenary - rushes to power, weave intrigues and are ready to stab a knife in the back, there is room for nobility, compassion and love. Meanwhile, no one notices the awakening of darkness from legends far in the North - and only the Wall protects the living south of it.

Review of the series from me:
"Game of Thrones" - for me this is one of the powerful series of the century. Finally, the fantasy genre has become popular, I think this phenomenon is due to the progress of computer graphics.

So, we have several aristocratic surnames (originally, Lannister and Starkey), who weave intrigues and, subsequently, unleash a war for power in the Seven Kingdoms. The most cherished dream of every authoritarian is the legendary saddle of the supreme ruler - the Iron throne. But it's for big players, the rest are content with smaller pieces. In the center, the plot (initially, again) Lord of the North Ned Stark (Sean Bean) and his family. Ned goes to the capital, Royal Harbor, in order to assume the duties of the King's Hand (judging by the plot, left). But in connection with some secret affairs Cersei Lannister, the queens, with whom the Starkeys faced the fate of fate, they have serious problems. I mean, even before encroaching on life comes. And gradually the confrontation flares up. Parallel to this, in the north, which is north of the North, waking up evil, called White Walkers, and in the East, in Esso, the Prince-exile prepares to return the Iron Throne with the help of a nomadic army sold to his sister. But this is still poorly reacted in the Seven Kingdoms, occupied with their internal problems. In general, the plot is good, the expected invasions-catastrophes cause the wait for the final with tension.

The main drawback of the series, I think the stinginess of investors who have regretted the money for large-scale battles in the spirit of the Lord of the Rings and the Braveheart. Although with the popularity of the series there is a hope that I drive away from myself, that in the future sponsors will fork out and make fans happy with an epic pie filled with massive battle scenes in all Sun Tzu's canons.

Javadi's music perfectly conveys all the tragedy and scale of the game of thrones. Now it will be another one of my favorite composers. The truth in the soundtrack was inspired only by the main melody in the screensaver.

The make-up and costumes remarkably illustrated the atmosphere of the medieval society. Armor and weapons are made amazing, for which the costumers a special thank you!
10 out of 10 from me.

Interesting Facts:
The series is based on a series of novels by George RR Martin "A Song of Ice and Fire" - 1996 - n. at.

The series contains dialogues in artificial languages, foreign to Västerås, - Dothraki and Valirian. For their development, HBO hired a linguist who created his own dictionaries, pronunciation and grammatical structure for each language.

The first television series in the sound system Dolby Atmos.

The series for the most part faithfully conveys the plot of the cycle "The Song of Ice and Fire," but in it there are individuals, as if composed of several characters in novels. As the most notable, you can call a prostitute Ros, which combines features of several characters of books (in particular Alaya, Chataia and Kira, and also some nameless ones), and the Spice King, which appears in the second season of the series.
