George R.R. Martin, author of the popular book series"A Song of Ice and Fire," which inspired the hit HBO series"Game of Thrones" poses in Toronto, on Monday, March 12, 2012. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Nathan DenetteSANTA FE, N.M. -- "Game of Thrones" author George R.R. Martin won't be able to build a seven-sided, castle-style library at his compound in Santa Fe that drew objections from neighbours.
"It is a medieval castle, and I don't understand how we could possibly approve it in this style," board member Frank Katz said. "With the notoriety of Mr. Martin and `Game of Thrones,' we absolutely fear that our neighbourhood will become the next treasure hunt, that his fans will be looking to find the castle that's in the middle of Santa Fe," Graham said.
Alexander Dzurec with the architecture firm Autotroph Inc. filed the application for the height exemption and said Tuesday that the library was intended to house "a very sizable collection" of literature and "other collectibles."
