As a devoted fan who’s spent countless hours immersed in the captivating worlds of sci-fi, fantasy, movies, TV and books, I’ve got to say this past week has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride!

As a long-time fan of both Game of Thrones and the Targaryen family saga, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of House of the Dragon. Having read the Fire & Blood book, I can confidently say that the upcoming third season promises to be filled with drama, intrigue, and epic battles that fans have come to expect from this franchise.

Is the newly launched science fiction series by the creators of “The Expanse” titled “The Mercy of the Gods” worth giving a read?

The second season of “House of the Dragon” has concluded, yet HBO still has a plethora of exciting series on the horizon. Among them, none are more highly anticipated than the upcoming season of their post-apocalyptic zombie drama, “The Last of Us”.
