Fans wondering if
Fans wondering if the ending of « Game of Thrones » was « true » to George R. Martin’s « A Song of Ice and Fire » novels got an answer from the author himself Monday night.
Yes and no.
The prolific writer took to his website Monday to reflect on the finale of HBO’s adaptation of his fantasy epic saying, « Book or show, which will be the ‘real’ ending? It’s a silly question. »
Fans of Martin’s novels and of the show have been asking if David Benioff and D. B. Weiss’ retelling of his series was true to the author’s vision since season five. That is the season where Benioff and Weiss began to deviate from Martin’s source material because Martin hadn’t finished the final books in his series.
« How will it all end? I hear people asking. The same ending as the show? Different? » Martin wrote. « Well… yes.
