House of the Dragon boss explains why they made Alicent and Rhaenyra the “central characters”

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but express my thoughts about the recent conclusion of “House of the Dragon” season 2. If you’re well-versed in the original storyline – George R.R. Martin’s book “Fire & Blood” – you’ll understand that the series deviated quite significantly from its roots. The changes were so profound that even the author himself voiced his criticisms, creating a divide within the fandom that seems uncertain to heal. The atmosphere among fans is certainly tense these days.
