The first season of HBO's Game of Thrones TV series won a Hugo award last night for "Best Dramatic Presentation - long form". This award was given at the 70th World Science Fiction Convention, A.K. A. 'Chicon 7', in Chicago IL. On hand to receive the award was the show's executive producer David Benioff, as well as George R.R. Martin. Commenting on the Award, Mr. Martin commented that he hopes the series will go on 'for many years'. Athdavrazar! to all involved, and I think those of us in the Dothraki speakers' community can certainly share in the excitement!
GRRM's most recent installment in the ASOIAF series, 'A Dance With Dragons' was also up for a Hugo for 'best novel', but it did not win. Perhaps next time!
