But they still haven’t made a film out of The Wheel of Time.

If there's going to be another TV series done from epic fantasy, I'd rather see an adaptation of Joe Abercrombie's "First Law" series. Unlike either Robert Jordan or George RR Martin, Abercrombie knows how to finish a story and he does it in very effective fashion. Between beginning and end he packs a lot of dark humor, surprising twists and engaging characters, along with the requisite violence and magical plot devices. I'd only ask that they don't let the show runners from "Game of Thrones" anywhere near it.

Jordan was using the term “Game of Houses” in WOT years ago, which is probably where “Game of Thrones” stole it from.
