Il trono di spade

Vi piace il trono di spade che vedete nella serie televisiva?

Ecco, quello che vedete non ha nulla a che fare con il trono che aveva immaginato Martin.

In basso qualcosa di simile a quanto Martin aveva in mente:

    Spesso per rendere le storie più belle o per far in modo che gli altri si avvicinino alle serie tv, cambiano molte cose e quindi non fanno come vogliono chi ha ideato il grande mondo fantasy che abbiamo letto nei libri

      Infatti, lo stesso Martin si rende conto che non sarebbe mai potuto essere come lo immagina lui, ecco cosa dici sul suo NotaBlog (in inglese):

      ‘m a realist about these things, and I know perfectly well that for millions of television viewers worldwide, the HBO Iron Throne is THE Iron Throne, and always will be. It turns up everywhere, on book covers, on magazines, in places that have no connection to the show. Say “GAME OF THRONES,” and people think of the HBO Iron Throne.

      And, hell, in some ways the HBO throne is more real than mine could ever be. They’ve actually MADE theirs (though it is not actually made of iron). There’s the one that sits on the set in Belfast’s Paint Hall, and at least six others that travel about the country making promotional appearances at conventions, screenings, exhibits, and the like. They turn up in train stations and parks. Thousands of people have had their pictures taken sitting on the Iron Throne, including many celebrities. And me as well, many times. Over in the UK, Sky Atlantic has their own Iron Throne, that also travels about to help promote the show. Canal + has one too, in Spain. The Spanish and British thrones are variants, somewhat different from the HBO throne, yet similar in most important respects. I’ve been seated on both of those at well.

      The HBO throne has become iconic. And well it might. It’s a terrific design, and it has served the show very well. There are replicas and paperweights of it in three different sizes. Everyone knows it. I love it. I have all those replicas right here, sitting on my shelves.

      And yet, and yet… it’s still not right. It’s not the Iron Throne I see when I’m working on THE WINDS OF WINTER. It’s not the Iron Throne I want my readers to see. The way the throne is described in the books… HUGE, hulking, black and twisted, with the steep iron stairs in front, the high seat from which the king looks DOWN on everyone in the court… my throne is a hunched beast looming over the throne room, ugly and assymetric…
