Read first?
01
When to read first
Read at least the early novels first if that war is unspoiled for you. The game sits inside it and uses its people, and it also picked up show details.
02
When playing first is fine
Play first only if the books and the show are already known, or already abandoned. It is its own campaign, not a chapter replay, but it is not a safe side door.
03
Why
Original protagonists do not fence off a story that is already mid-war. You will learn where the great houses stand.
