George R.R. Martin quiz: How well do you know the Gamemaster of Thrones? - CNET

You strapped on your armor, hefted your sword of Valyrian steel and triumphed against our "Game of Thrones" mega-quiz. You watched every season 6 trailer ahead of the April 24 premiere. You can recite all the names on Arya's to-kill list. Now a new challenge awaits you. Can you scale the daunting wall and conquer our George R.R. Martin quiz?

Martin, author of the "Song of Ice and Fire" series, is the man who kills off your favorite (and your least favorite) characters. He shows no mercy when it comes to the written word, but he leads a delightfully diverse life outside of the Seven Kingdoms. Martin has contributed a fortune to the Santa Fe, New Mexico, arts community, watches National Football League games and putters around town in a unique vehicle.

Test out your knowledge of the man behind the myth as you battle and intrigue your way through questions covering everything from his middle initials to his writing career. We know you're plaing to watch the season 6 premiere on Sunday, so add #GoTCNET to your Twitter musings and we'll share our favorite reader tweets on Monday.
