    Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun. It will stretch from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues; to the vast and savage eastern lands… …all the way to the frozen north, where an 700-foot wall of ice protects the kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men... All will play the ‘Game of Thrones’. Season 1 Synopsis: Game Of Thrones is a new HBO original television program based on George R. R. Martin’s best-selling ‘A Song Of Ice And Fire’ series. Set in a fictitious world reminiscent of Medieval Europe in which magic exists and the seasons can last for many years, Game Of Thrones follows the violent dynastic struggles of an empire in turmoil. As seven noble families fight for control of the mythical land of Westeros, intrigue abounds. Robert Baratheon, King of Westeros, asks his old friend Eddard Stark to serve as his chief advisor, or “Hand of the King.” Stark learns that more than one family is plotting to take the throne. The Queen's family, the Lannisters, may be hatching an incestuous plot to take control. Across the sea, the last surviving members of the previously deposed ruling family, the Targaryens, are also plotting a return to power. The vast web of conflicts Lord Stark uncovers in the capitol leads to shocking revelations, deadly confrontations and eventually to war. In the Game of Thrones, you win or you die.
