If you really feel this is so much like GOT, are you really even a fan? This story like is so much more different. This story goes into the magical world of mages, monsters and wizardry. This has a great plot and phenomenal acting. The casting is spot on. The writing is exceptional. Graphics/CGI are great. I had trouble following along the story line. There are many flashbacks and there is no warning, you just find yourself confused until you figure it out. I would give it a ten if I could follow easier. Also, many curses, potions and rules/laws are used without any explanation. This can be confusing as well. I had to Google a lot, thank you Reddit. I can't wait for the second season to come, i just hope its soon. It really is a must watch.
