Great game, especially if you are into the show or the books.  Objectively, as euro style game, it is a lot of fun...beautiful components, and great characters....downside, is despite many play throughs and depending on the amount of people you are playing with, the game isn't as balanced as I would like it.  It feels authentic to the show and books....and if that is what you want, you won't be disappointed- but if you are objectively looking for the next best thing to add to your collection, there are better choices.
