Game Of Thrones returns in a second season with a continuation of its ambitious, politically-charged story that continues the ever-increasing struggle for dominance in Westeros. With more characters and several sub-plots along with the main plot line this year, Game of Thrones continues to surprise and impress with a strong season that hits all the right notes. With solid acting, a wonderfully written screenplay, and some captivating action, Game of Thrones proves why it's one of the best fantasy TV shows to grace the small screen.


With the world of Westeros still grappling with the shock of the death of Ned Stark (Sean Bean) at the hands of tyrannical bastard Joffrey Lannister (Jack Gleeson), the second season begins right where it is, with the kingdoms in turmoil and fate. went. The Taj hangs in the balance. As news about Joffrey's illegitimate bloodline spreads to the Baratheons, various powers arise around Westeros to fight for control of the Iron Throne. Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillon), King Robert's biological brother, embraces a strange god with a little help from the red witch Melisandre (Caris van Houten), while his brother Renly (Gethin Anthony) and his queen Margre (Natalie Dormer) Baratheon. A conspiracy to seize the throne for himself thanks to his allegiance to the army. While the brothers wrestle for control of their army, the scattered Stark kids split up and try to survive, while their older brother Rob (Richard Madden) continues his crusade to march south and Meet the Lannisters in battle.

Across the Narrows, Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) and her newly created dragons continue to gain followers and her slow journey to claim the Iron Throne finds her taking refuge in the strange city of Karth for the vast majority of the season. Sees, surrounded by skimmers and shadows. Pot. North of Val John (Kit Harrington) continues their arduous journey with the Night's Watch into the freezing cold, in contrast to the arid, choked desert surrounding Carth, where they find refuge with Crestor (Robert Pugh), Who is the only man who is in his own circle. The daughters he puts to bed and marries to keep his blood pure. Later, John finds himself face to face with the infamous wild beasts as they venture into the vast unknown and one in particular, Ygritte (Rose Leslie), is very good at sowing the seeds of doubt in the heart of John's moral compass. Works.


The wild card along these plot lines is Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen), who questions his allegiance to his biological father while returning to his homeland, the Iron Islands, to try and gain allegiance to King Robb. . The Greyjoys turn down his offer, instead trying to retrieve the answer for themselves and see opportunity in the chaos. With battles and battles raging across the land, the season ends with terrifying green fire and bloodshed in King's Landing and a defined, epic battle for domination of the throne.

There's no denying that the second season of Game of Thrones has a lot going on. All of these plot lines contain the same amount of political intrigue, plot twists, action, and intricately woven storylines that made the first season so beloved with more high stakes than ever. The mystery surrounding the White Walkers and the ensuing apocalypse along with the illustrious history of the various homes is worth exploring. Westeros certainly feels like a world made up of the Seven Kingdoms this year, with a vast geographical spread boasting some unique art and authentic set design.

The high violence and sexually charged scenes return in true Game of Thrones fashion that made the first season such a culture shock for those less accustomed to the books and decidedly weaker-tempered audiences. Everything from sadistic sexual abuse to blood-soaked violence is shown in visceral detail, thanks to constant improvisation with special effects. Whether this level of graphic material is needed to tell the story on the small screen is certainly open to interpretation, but given the source material, it fits with the mood and realistic portrayal of George R.R. Martin's story. .

There are some key scenes missing this season due to budget constraints and Battle for Blackwater isn't as epic as it is in the books, but there's still a thoroughly enjoyable and impressive season of fantasy action here. Coupled with dialogue, colloquialism, and a complete history of the world, Game of Thrones isn't just one of the best politically charged dramas on TV, it's also easily one of the best fictional stories of all time. The 10 episodes manage to give each character easily enough screen time, moving the plot around the Iron Throne's dominance. With the second season ending on a major cliffhanger, the future looks pretty bleak for Westeros, but certainly bright for anyone who's on board and looking at this stunning show.
