Tower of the Hand

TIME Magazine once described George R. R. Martin as "The American Tolkien." Now TIME's pop culture critic, James Poniewozik, is adding his praise for A Game of Thrones and arguing why it could be "HBO's Next (I Hope) Great Drama." This kind of publicity from a mainstream publication can only help convince HBO that AGOT is worth putting on the air, so encourage Poniewozik to keep reading and writing about the series (and thank him for linking to our site).

Update: Winter Is Coming finds other major TV critics twittering about A Game of Thrones, too.
