Game of Thrones

"Game of Thrones" – an American TV series that has aired on HBO since 2011.

The series is based on the novels of the saga "A Song of Ice and Fire" by George R. R. Martin, which he has been publishing since 1996.

The events of the novel revolve around political and other intrigues in the struggle for power over the fictional continent of Westeros. And whoever takes the Iron Throne will rule.

However, the events of the series have already overtaken the storylines described in the books. Therefore, the plots of the sixth, seventh and eighth (final) seasons are based on drafts of books that have not yet been published, consultations with Martin and the plot developments of the "Game of Thrones" writers.

The eighth and final season of "Game of Thrones" is due to air in 2019. It will have the smallest number of episodes in the history of the series – only six.
