Season Eight of Game of Thrones has finally started, and now our watch begins. The fine folks at the Watchers on the Wall are agreeably continuing to publish features written by yours truly, and my latest essay is on the site, talking about the events of the first episode of this final season.
The Night King is on his way, and it looks like our favorite Starks, Targaryens, and Lannisters might be too busy squabbling to resist him. And that’s okay.
You can read the entire feature by using the link below, a link to an essay so great that my editor literally told me that it would heal the warring fan community.
I am not making this up.
Fighting the Night King will be hard; coming together to do so may be harder
I hope everyone enjoyed the season premiere. Only five more episodes of Game of Thrones left to us. I’m not ready to say goodbye.
