THE INSPIRATION FOR HBO AND SKY'S HOUSE OF THE DRAGON
Centuries before A Game of Thrones, an even greater game began, one that set the skies alight with dragon flame and saw the Seven Kingdoms turned to ash. The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to life in George R.R. Martin's FIRE & BLOOD.
So began the Targaryens' bloody rule, with fire and blood. Setting brother against brother, mother against daughter, and dragon against dragon.
