They should have put GoT on hiatus when they ran out of material to adapt and put the pressure on GRRM to finish the damn books.

For this, I dunno, is it actually adapting Herbert material? Or is it another thing like "Foundation" where "we like the names, but fuck the original..."

It's not Frank Herbert material.

"The prequel series based on the 2012 novel Sisterhood of Dune by Kevin J Anderson and Brian Herbert, the son of Dune creator Frank Herbert."
