George RR Martin Praises House of the Dragon's 'Dark' First Episode - ComingSoon.net

In a new blog post, author George R.R. Martin has expressed his excitement for HBO’s first Game of Thrones spin-off House of the Dragon, confirming that he has already watched a rough cut of the first episode. Martin went on to praise the upcoming show’s first episode, describing it as dark, powerful, and visceral. He also teased that like the main series, viewers will be falling in love with a lot of characters.

“I am anticipating House of the Dragon pretty eagerly myself, for what it’s worth,” Martin shared. “Okay, I am hardly objective. And I know a lot of what you will be seeing. (I, um, wrote the book). Also … mum’s the word now, don’t tell anyone… I’ve seen a rough cut of the first episode. And loved it. It’s dark, it’s powerful, it’s visceral… just the way I like my epic fantasy.”

He continues, “Ryan and Miguel have done an amazing job, and the cast… just as with Game of Thrones, most viewers will only have heard of a few of the actors, but I think you are going to fall in love with a lot of them. (Only to have your heart broken later when… but no, that would be telling).

“I think the Targaryens are in very good hands.”
