After reading The Iliad for the first time & participating in a discussion group, I wrote this piece about its influence on Game of Thrones and its creators.

Thank you! Yes, Game of Thrones was entertaining but it also has tremendous depth, complexity and underappreciated thematic ties to literature, history & myth. I maintain that the final season & finale were lost on an audience wanting a Hollywood ending when in reality ASOIAF/GOT is a TRAGEDY.
