âGame of Thronesâ Fans Find TV Series Spoilers in Local Bookstores
Fans of acclaimed HBO seriesÂ Game Of ThronesÂ have reportedly been finding books full of spoilers about the show placed secretly in bookstores around the world. The news has sent many impatient watchers rushing to purchase the volumes, while others have protested against the blatant disregard of the writers for the suspense for which the program is renowned.âItâs insane,â said one fan delighted by the revelations. âThe fifth season is only coming out in April, and already someone has leaked whatâll happen. I opened the one â itâs titled A Feast For Crows â and was shocked to find out that [spoilers removed]. I canât wait to break it to my friends about [spoilers removed] dying. Theyâll never believe it, nor will they believe that [spoilers removed] makes it all the way to [spoilers removed].ââI donât think itâs fair. I picked up A Dance With Dragons, innocently thinking it was fanfic about the Game of ThronesÂ universe, and unwittingly found out that [spoilers removed],â said aggrieved fan, Stacey Jones. âIâm so scared that inconsiderate people will reveal to me what else is going to happen. Literally, Iâm not looking at any blogs about the series unless they have disclaimers stating [spoilers removed].âThe source of the leak earlier today revealed his identity to be George R.R. Martin, one of the main story writers for the blockbuster series. He defended his actions by citing similar series and movies whose major plot were revealed by writers long before their release dates.âTolkien did the same thing,â said an unperturbed Martin. âHe revealed that Frodo [spoilers removed] decades before the release date was due. Stephen King is another who consistently does this. It adds to the suspense â not only are you scared of whatâll happen to your favorite characters, youâre now terrified someone will tell you in advance.âCritics have dismissed the news as unremarkable, stating that itâs characteristic of Martin, who has written such characters as [spoilers removed] out of the show to shock viewers, and never fails to disappoint in bringing fansâ anxiety to the verge of boiling point.
