I keep hearing people talking about Game of Thrones - what is it??  I've never heard of it before!
Oh man, really? Well, it's HBO's adaptation of George R. R. Martin's fantasy series, "A Song of Ice and Fire." The show gets its name from the title of the first book

Maybe I should check it out - it sounds like it's quite popular!
