Dear Iain, There are so many reasons why I feel you deserve this fan book and more recognition for the work you do. Your ability to portray another person’s life and personality even when it is so far from your own has always enthralled me. I had already been a fan for many years when you were cast in Game of Thrones as Ser Jorah Mormont so I was very excited to see how you would portray Jorah. When the first series was broadcast neither I nor other fans knew how much we would be immersed in this wonderful programme and in particular your character Ser Jorah Mormont. Spending so much time involved in supporting someone, running the website, creating a place for fans to come together, creating the fan group as a fan, I feel this immense sense of pride for every achievement, every award that you receive or a show or stage play that you are involved in receives, every moment that you - the actor - makes someone’s life a little bit happier and brighter by just doing what you do best. You have also brought people together. For me, the owner of the iainglenfans.org and serjorahsarmy.com websites, and for the most loyal fans who play their part in regularly keeping the website and it’s gallery and social network pages updated and full of activity, it’s a story of friendship, from being strangers we’ve all become friends from all over the world. So this fan book is a massive thank you for all the work you do, for making characters such as our faves Jorah Mormont and Jack Taylor come alive. It’s our way of showing you that you are loved, appreciated and respected and for letting us share this wonderful, amazing life experience with you. The Glennies xx 1 Dear Iain, Thank you for being my main inspiration everyday. At times it feels like you are my guardian angel helping me get through some really tough times in my life by your kindness, your ability to help me escape into the world of your characters and you just being you! Sarah (Sarz), UK xxx Dear Iain, I have been a HUGE fan for several years now, even before Game of Thrones or Jack Taylor. I first saw you in the movie “The Wyvern Mystery” and that’s all it took. I then saw you in “Song for a Raggy Boy”. I knew at that moment that you were the finest actor living today and I would be a fan forever. I have enjoyed so many of your projects and most recent, of course, Game of Thrones and Jack Taylor, but there have been so many other amazing treasures to choose from. I just want to say “Thank You” for your amazing talent and for being such a wonderful human being. The world needs more people like you. Blessings to you and your family, and I look forward to watching more of your remarkable work.

Since then I follow all your work. My favorite character of yours is Jack Taylor. Is there a chance to see more of Jack Taylor in another season? Lovely Regards from me and I wish all the Best. Peggy, Germany. 10 11 Hi Iain! I'm a 20-year-old Italian girl and think you are fantastic actor...thank you very much for this website! I wish you every joy and lots of happiness. Angelita, Italy Iain Glen has been so iconic to me in his acting roles (especially Game of Thrones,) how he makes a not so much of a favourite in the book series of a song of ice and fire, to make him a fan favourite to everyone (most people) and still portraying Jorah well. He's most definitely my favourite character in Game Of Thrones and he's the one who gets my heart beating as I worry that he might not live on to another episode (in show death), and he has introduced me to other roles of him I hadn't seen before, how he introduced me to a new line of shows which grip me by his impeccable acting skills. He has inspired me, watching him do what he does makes me happy. Noah, UK (aged 14) Banished Her words pierced my heart like Valyrian steel, It couldn’t be a dream then it must be real. How could it have to come to this? To be banished plunged me into an abyss “I have loved you”, I said to her I am your friend, your old bear But she did not want to know Khaleesi, please…don’t let me go But it was too late; the damage done King’s Landing and Tywin had won. Connie Roberts, Australia (poem) 12 Hi Iain! My name is Julia and I’m from Sweden. I am a big fan of Game Of Thrones and while I have always liked Jorah, this 5th season I’ve realized how much I really love him and also Jorah and Daenerys together. The scene in season 4 when she banished him broke my heart as much as my heart sang when they were reunited again this season.
