After a season 2 finale that some viewers (including those of this parish) thought of as a bit of a bait and switch, the latest run of the "Game of Thrones" prequel is bringing total war as the Greens and Blacks try to reinforce their dominance of the Valyrian Freehold and Rhaenyra Targaryen attempts to clinch power in the face of ever spiralling odds.
HBO played its cards close to its chest in terms of plotlines in the lead-up, but some cast members have given a flavor of what to expect. Matt Smith (Daemon Targaryen) described season 3 as "a big bloodbath", while Emma D’Arcy (Rhaenyra) told fans to expect "an increased ambition to the set pieces, but also to the narrative drama". Indeed, showrunner Ryan Condal has already teased a 'conceptual episode' at some point during the eight-episode run.
And episode 1 was no disappointment — as you can discover in our spoiler-filled review that declared: "it delivered epic battles on dragonback and brought back the expectation that anyone and everyone can die in Westeros". Then came episode 2, which dutifully followed the intensity of the premiere by delivering gallons of more bloodshed.
