The author said he challenged HBO's decision to deviate from the original plot in his book, adding that 'simpler is not better', and warned of its repercussions for series three and four.
Author George RR Martin has criticised the second series of House Of The Dragon, saying he 'argued against' a plot change because it now creates a 'butterfly effect' for future episodes. The writer, who is co-creator and an executive producer on the show, warned in a since-deleted blog post 'there are larger and more toxic butterflies to come'.
'We believe that Ryan Condal and his team have done an extraordinary job and the millions of fans the series has amassed over the first two series will continue to enjoy it.' Martin went on to compare the HBO series with Fire & Blood, which the show is based on. He said his book features Aegon and Helaena Targaryen - played by Tom Glynn-Carney and Phia Saban, respectively - who have twins Jaehaera and Jaehaerys along with a younger son, Maelor.
