Fantasy Fandom: Back to Winterfell

At long last, the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones premiered on Home Box Office Sunday night and, after making us wait for more than a year and a half, will require us to wait again for any real action. Sure, Jon finally rode a dragon. But who didn’t see that coming? “Winterfell” was an episode of reminders and reunions, of returning to the place where it all started before launching into the final excursion of what has been an eight-year journey.

By now, we know the score. The first-ever episode of the series was legendary television, packed with surprise, intrigue, and enough eyebrow-raising turns of event to captivate an audience immediately.
