About this deal

Los dragones reinaban en Poniente la historia de tan fascinante familia, empezando por Aegon I Targaryen, creador del emblemático Trono de Hierro, y seguido por el resto de las generaciones de Targaryen que lucharon por conservar el poder y el trono, hasta la llegada de la guerra civil que estuvo a punto de acabar con ellos. With all the scope and grandeur of Gibbon's The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Fire and Blood is the ultimate game of thrones, giving readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros. It took me a long time to get through this book simply, as at times, I just did not feel like reading more than a few pages at a time. He gleefully and publicly embarks on other projects, and otherwise occupies his time with such trivialities as filling his blog with updates on the New York Jets (which is a waste, by any measure), rather than devoting himself to finishing the saga of Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, and Daenerys Targaryen (which is going to be his legacy, or not).

This part is also already old news and lacking in novelty, it can be found in the encyclopedia as well as the novellas "The Princess and the Queen" and "The Rogue Prince. Martin's "Thrones" series, I find this told from the Maester's point of view instead of character's extremely boring. There is a simplified family tree of the Targaryens at the end of the book but, as usual, it's too small to see in the e-book so you'll need a print-out. Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen - the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria - took up residence on Dragonstone.The Dance of the Dragons part in The World of Ice and Fire was too short to make me care, but here it was awesome to see the deaths of each dragon in detail. For a fantasy series that really doesn't have that much magic in it, this was a huge draw for me, a fan of the OG swords and sorcery brand of fantasy.

His death appears straight forward, he was found with his wrists slit having died from exsanguination after cutting himself on the throne. Fire and Blood is an amazing piece of work that does for the World of Ice and Fire what The Silmarillion did for Tolkien's Arda. She also gets to go on the coolest adventures and she has three flipping dragons that she rides around like a BAMF. In this world, siblings and children are often given very similar names, often, a child will have the same name as a parent or sibling with just one letter changed. Más difícil aún es lo que logra cuando lo leemos de buenas y si nos apasiona este mundo y sobretodo los Targaryen.

GRRM has chosen to use a different writing style, taking the viewpoint of a fictional historian rather than a protagonist, and the result is that it's all less of an immersive tale and more like a history textbook. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. Martin can be a fantastic plotter, setting up glorious long-games, layering twists upon turns, and dropping some of the most gut-wrenching set pieces in literature. We also get a list of reigns and dates and a Targaryen family tree, which is helpful if you get your Aegons mixed up with your Aemons. For the first time since the Doom of Valyria, dragon contended with dragon in the sky, even as battle was joined below.

Apparently, it all started with a dream about the incident – which is very vivid in the TV series – when Bran discovers the direwolf pups.

Mushroom’s retellings are raucous and bawdy, joyously embracing the salacious and prurient, the devious and violent. But as it was winter already, he also decreed that they would have to spend several months where they were, until the weather was favorable for their journey. It is NOT a novel, as I stated in my disclaimer at the top - at least, not a novel in the traditional sense. Even the forest seems darker, like something is lurking and tainting the very fabric of their world.There are many good things, for example it is good to know about the Targaryens and where they came from.
