I definitely enjoyed it until the last episode. I really don’t like your ending either. But it was a wonderful job and the voice actors were great and the story was wonderful. I loved it. I don’t know how I would end it but I think you did a good job. Great job. I’d like a happy ending for John.
Fantastic GOT Storytelling

The first season gave us a better Game of Thrones ending than what we watched on the original television series. This season was so much fun here in this podcast. You can feel the characters emotions as if they are your own.. the tensions.. the anger... your heart pumps and your mind races as it paints images of the storyline I have listened to various fan fiction but this person.. group.. have done something I had not heard before this.. professional quality work. They do not have HBO money etc.. but they still put together a fantastic story that will draw you in. Dare I say provided a far better GoT Television ending that HBO put out?! The second series is Robert's Rebellions. Book readers are aware that there really is not much info about this event other than Robert killed Rhaegar and they all were probably fighting over a false premise. About 5 episodes have been released so far and i once again, find myself waiting impatiently for the next episode to be released. The story telling for both seasons makes sense and fits into the GoT backdrop. But most importantly the story is very interesting and keeps my attention! Very appreciative of those that created these stories. Thanks!
The season 8 we deserved!

Just wow. Thank you thank you thank you! What a great ending. The story was so incredible and perfectly brought everything full circle and seeing all of our favorites lost come back once more was so special. It was such a beautiful journey and it was everything I could hope for. I will definitely be listening again and again!

Righted every wrong with the HBO blunder that was season 8. Great production quality considering it being fan produced! Hats off to everyone involved!
Better than HBO

The story is a million times better than season 8. The actors did a phenomenal job re-creating the characters. Well done.
Very well done

Now THIS…THIS is a finale worthy of the series. I would pay BIG MONEY to see this on screen. This was infinitely more satisfying than the “official “ series finale. The exceptionally talented writers and voice actors did an superb job breathing life into the story and are truly credits to their craft. I wish there were more installments.
Hopeful so far!

I’m about halfway. I’ve really enjoyed it so far, other than Jon and Dany’s mission, which makes even less sense than the mission to get a wight k. The original show. Hopefully, there’s a purpose 😂. Five stars regardless because it’s an impressive work! Dang I just finished episode 5 and I’m more mad than ever. I had to change my stars to one. F***! I just got my heart broken again. I thought this was supposed to fix the horrible parts! Changing Dany’s personality to mean, just like d&d, screwing Jon over…how could you?
Amazing Rewrite

The story was right there for D&D and they blew it. This was brilliant. No plot holes to speak of. Everything was wrapped up in a beautiful bow of closure. Great work to everyone involved. Could not recommend this more. This will tide me over until WoW & DoS come out 😂
Vastly superior

[Point of Order: The review by “DittyKnitty” needs to be removed from so close to the top of the user reviews list. It spoiled the fates of several main characters for me and I’m sure I’m not the only one. An unforgivable crime.] Finally, the Season 8 we should have gotten. The storytelling and characterizations are much more in keeping with the show we followed for the first 5 or so years (before they ran out of books for source material). And making a full 10 episodes lets the characters interact and breathe and LIVE in ways we never saw a single time in the super rushed tv version of Season 8. The writing is terrific, treating these characters as the intelligent people they are who always make choices consistent with who we know them to be. I’m most impressed with the dialogue, which is crisp, whip-smart, and at times surprisingly witty. There are popular fiction authors and tv shows who never manage to turn out material written this well. Kudos as well to the voice actors, many of whom nail their live-action counterparts. Narrating a show of this size and scale had to be a daunting task—YOU imagine describing everything that happens to an audience who can’t see it for themselves—but the chosen narrator grabs your attention and holds it quite well, without once going over the top. But my favorite thing about this work of fan fiction is that it does one all-important thing that the tv series shrugged off and forgot to care about anymore—and does it well: it remembers the show’s own history! The prophecy of the Prince Who Was Promised, completely dropped on the show, returns here. All the time and effort that was spent on Arya learning to become the greatest fighter in Westeros got barely a few seconds of payoff on the tv show. Here it’s a crucial plot point throughout the season. Likewise her unique face-swapping ability. The tv show producers clearly had no idea what to do with Bran and the Three-Eyed Raven thing, forgetting entirely about his ability to visit history or his warging powers. The same can’t be said here. I have but a few gripes, and all of them about personal preference. I had high hopes that one character who turned evil in the show would fare better here, but that was not how the cards fell. At least it made a lot more sense in this version, and was far more believable. And several of the major characters who died in the Battle of Winterfell were just unthinkable. Maybe that was the point—the shock factor. Martin always went for that sort of thing, so i suppose it honors his legacy. But hours of time invested in a popular character should not be wasted on a meaningless, undignified end. All that said, this is still, BY FAR, the Season 8 we should have gotten. Bravo to whoever put this together; the quality of the finished product speaks for itself.
How could you?

The writing is impeccable. The sound effects are perfect. Overall, terrific production, but there are occasional sound issues. As far as story…Why did you do my guy, Jon that way? I couldn’t put this podcast down, so that’s a good thing, but…I’m convinced I’m never going to get Jon satisfaction until the premiere of ‘Snow’ (Working Title).
