I started to watch GOT because of the author. I grew up on Science Fiction, then later kind of grew into more of a swords and sorcery I guess you could call it kind of person, or maybe ‘Fantasy’ would be a more apt description, as my local libraries that I could get to growing up ran out of all the good Science Fiction books (I read them all).

That being said, I read a lot of the stuff back in the day, no other specific authors come to mind off the top (just woke up, still trying to caffeinate), but if it’s any consolation, I never cared for Anne McCaffrey’s Pern series either. I do remember going through like 6 episodes it was of GOT trying to like it, as everybody else was really liking it, but just couldn’t see what everybody else saw in it, but with this, man, right away it had me.

But yeah, I can see how with some people mood might have something to do with how a show will hit you just right…or not.

There was one, can’t remember the author, or the series of books, was several as I recall, was pretty popular back in the day, would make a great series now the way they can do the CGI, was about a kid, medieval times, and there was this big tapestry hanging on this wall, and he got transported into the tapestry. There was also this spider on the tapestry, and the kid and the spider became friends, and teamed up, to get back out of the tapestry. As I recall, there was something they needed to get in order to do so. Something the kid went into there to get in the first place.

Was a VERY good book, with a few that came after it. A lot could be done with that today.
