Imagine “The Witcher” meets “Game of Thrones” and this is what you are about to experience with this series! Even if you haven’t seen either of those shows - this series is AMAZING!
“The knots tied in ropes used by the unsighted characters to read is inspired by a reading system believed to be created by the Incas, called quipu or khipu.”
After watching GoT’s 5 times I can honestly say this series comes the closest to the intensity, lure and action that GoT’s had for me. Keep in mind that Jason Momoa was a big part of GoT’s and he is the LEAD in this series and well deserving of that role!
This series will definitely fill the void left by GoT’s!. The story line is completely fresh and very thought provoking.
Given that is a fictional show you need to get by issues you will see like everyone is totally blind and can travel thru unknown terrain effortlessly without bumping into to things. You’ll also be asking yourself how, in the fight scenes, each fighter knows, without sight, whether they are attacking friend or foe. Additionally they move from room to room with minimal touch to guide their way. Take if from me just go with it, you’ll see that the enjoyment of this series will intrigue you to find yourself engrossed in it and wanting more!
As in GoT’s each episode is surprising exciting leaving you eager to learn what happens next. Battle scenes are intense and well choreographed.
Mamoa’s character definitely stands out amongst all the characters. He does an amazing job of a fierce warrior with a past, yet possessing a heart of gold.
The pace of each episode is perfect and the fact that this is a 3 season story was the right amount that was completely satisfying to me.
I had not idea what I was about to watch and it turned out to be one of the best shows I’ve seen this year so far!
If you were a fan if “The Witcher” & “GoT’s” this show is definitely for you.
Watch the trailer below - you’ll see what I mean!!
The series is set in a post-apocalyptic dystopia in the distant future where humanity's descendants have lost their sense of sight, and the ability to see is considered to be a myth. The plot is set in motion by the birth of twin-sighted children in a mountain tribe.
