Game Of Thrones Author Will Kill Fans For $20,000

(PCM) Of course not literally, however for two deep-pocketed fans, one male and one female, Game Of Thrones author George R.R. Martin will write them into, and of course most likely kill them off in one of the upcoming volumes of Martin’s “A Song of Fire And Ice” book series. The two lucky fans shelled out $20,000 a piece for this unique opportunity and the money is going to a fantastic cause, as it will benefit a few charities supported by Martin which are Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary and the Food Depot of Santa Fe, N.M. There are additional prizes available based on the amount of your donation. One prize even consists of taking a helicopter ride with Martin himself to visit the wolf sanctuary.

Game Of Thrones: Another Wedding Leads To Another Shocking Death

**Spoiler Alert** Stop reading now if you have not seen Sunday night episode of HBO’s Game Of Thrones!  (PCM) Yet again it seems that weddings and Westeros don’t mix!  Last season viewers were witness to the horrific “red wedding” episode of Game Of Thrones where we lost beloved characters Robb Stark, his wife Talisa and mother Lady Catelyn Stark in a brutal surprise massacre. Now, season four gives us the “purple wedding”, as it has been dubbed by fans, during which television’s most hated villain the sadistic King Joffrey Baratheon finally met his fate. As much as we would like to be happy to see King Joffrey go, there is this tiny part of us that says ‘damn…who am I going to hate now’? Joffrey’s antics throughout the series as deplorable as they were made for some incredibly entertaining television. He was brilliantly portrayed by actor Jack Gleeson and was someone you absolutely adored to hate. Joffrey’s death occurred in such an unexpected way that at this point, we have not even learned who was his actual killer and what there motive may have been. Although with a character like Joffrey there were plenty to choose from! Putting the “purple … Continue reading
