It certainly has horror elements, with zombies and lots and lots of brutal killings. But, primarily, it is not a horror series and instead a fantasy thriller/drama.

First Season:

Primary locations: Paint Hall Studio in the Titanic Quarter of Belfast, Northern Ireland, and the city of Mdina, Malta, a change in location from Morocco. Additional filming locations included Cairncastle, Shane's Castle, Castle Ward, Magheramorne Quarry, and Tollymore Forest Park, all in Northern Ireland.

Is there going to be a second season of Game of Thrones?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sunday (9:00 PM - 10:00 PM) 04-01-2012 on HBO will be the first show

It started filming in July from what I heard... and it is a pretty expensive show. It should come out within the new year, I'm not guessing any sooner.

Just a heads up. On April 19, 2011, after airing only one episode, HBO announced that it had renewed Game of Thrones for a second season which will premiere in April 2012. On September 12th, 2011, it was announced that filmmaker Neil Marshall would direct the ninth episode of the second season, depicting the Battle of the Blackwater. This episode will be written by Martin. Other details of the forthcoming second season are not yet available.

Who killed Robert Baratheon?

User Avatar

Asked by EdgarFudge

He was fatally injured in a hunting accident, engineered by his wife Cersei. Robert was given much stronger wine than he expected, and as he tried to kill a boar, was gored by it. Though it sounds like his death was a fluke, Varys surmised that if it had not been the boar, Robert would have died from a 'fall' from his horse, or a hunting arrow gone astray. Either way, he was doomed. He soon died from his injuries.

There are a multitude of fantasy books out there besides the Game of Thrones series, depending on your tastes. The Xanth series is great if you enjoy your fantasy with a sense of humor, and you can't swing a baby dragon in a library without hitting some other fantasy book series.

Are there any similar TV shows to Game of Thrones which play in a epic medieval-fantasy kind of setting?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I do not know of any shows that are similar to TheLord of the Rings, but if you are wanting more books like LOTR (The Lord of the Rings) try reading the Binding of the Blade series by L. B. Graham. The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis is also good Fantasy but The Binding of the Blade series is a lot more like LOTR.

What is the 3rd book in the Game of Thrones series?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A Storm of Swords picks up the story slightly before the end of its predecessor, A Clash of Kings. The Seven Kingdoms of Westeros are still in the grip of the War of the Five Kings, with the remaining kings Robb Stark, Balon Greyjoy, Joffrey Baratheon, and Stannis Baratheon fighting to secure their crowns. Civil war is destroying the common people, the ruling House of Baratheon and the major houses of Westeros: House Arryn of The Eyrie, House Baratheon of Storm's End, House Greyjoy of Pyke, House Lannister of Casterly Rock, House Martell of Sunspear, House Stark of Winterfell, House Tully of Riverrun, and House Tyrell of Highgarden. Stannis Baratheon's attempt to take King's Landing has been defeated by the new alliance between House Lannister (backing Joffrey) and House Tyrell. House Martell has also pledged its support to the Lannisters through the forces of Dorne, while House Arryn of The Vale has yet to take the field or declare their allegiance. Meanwhile, a large host of wildlings are marching toward the Wall under Mance Rayder, the "King Beyond the Wall", with only the small force of the Night's Watch in its path; and in the distant east, Daenerys Targaryen is on her way back to Pentos, hoping to raise forces to retake the Iron Throne.
