Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • THE BOOK BEHIND THE FIFTH SEASON OF THE ACCLAIMED HBO SERIES GAME OF THRONES Don’t miss the thrilling sneak peek of George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire: Book Six, The Winds of Winter Dubbed “the American Tolkien” by Time magazine, George R. R. Martin has earned international acclaim for his monumental cycle of epic fantasy. Now the #1 New York Times bestselling author delivers the fifth book in his landmark series—as both familiar faces and surprising new forces vie for a foothold in a fragmented empire. A DANCE WITH DRAGONS In the aftermath of a colossal battle, the future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance—beset by newly emerging threats from every direction. In the east, Daenerys Targaryen, the last scion of House Targaryen, rules with her three dragons as queen of a city built on dust and death. But Daenerys has thousands of enemies, and many have set out to find her. As they gather, one young man embarks upon his own quest for the queen, with an entirely different goal in mind. Fleeing from Westeros with a price on his head, Tyrion Lannister, too, is making his way to Daenerys. But his newest allies in this quest are not the rag-tag band they seem, and at their heart lies one who could undo Daenerys’s claim to Westeros forever. Meanwhile, to the north lies the mammoth Wall of ice and stone—a structure only as strong as those guarding it. There, Jon Snow, 998th Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch, will face his greatest challenge. For he has powerful foes not only within the Watch but also beyond, in the land of the creatures of ice. From all corners, bitter conflicts reignite, intimate betrayals are perpetrated, and a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves, will face seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Some will fail, others will grow in the strength of darkness. But in a time of rising restlessness, the tides of destiny and politics will lead inevitably to the greatest dance of all. Praise for A Dance with Dragons “Filled with vividly rendered set pieces, unexpected turnings, assorted cliffhangers and moments of appalling cruelty, A Dance with Dragons is epic fantasy as it should be written: passionate, compelling, convincingly detailed and thoroughly imagined.”—The Washington Post “Long live George Martin . . . a literary dervish, enthralled by complicated characters and vivid language, and bursting with the wild vision of the very best tale tellers.”—The New York Times

La fascinante historia de los Targaryen, la dinastía que reinó en Poniente trescientos años antes del inicio de Canción de hielo y fuego, narrada por el archimaestre Glydayn, de la Ciudadela de Antigua. Siglos antes de que tuvieran lugar los acontecimientos que se relatan en «Canción de hielo y fuego», la casa Targaryen, la única dinastía de señores dragón que sobrevivió a la Maldición de Valyria, se asentó en la isla de Rocadragón. Aquí tenemos el primero de los dos volúmenes en el que el autor de Juego de tronos nos cuenta, con todo lujo de detalles, la historia de tan fascinante familia: empezando por Aegon I Targaryen, creador del icónico Trono de Hierro, y seguido por el resto de las generaciones de Targaryens que lucharon con fiereza por conservar el poder, y el trono, hasta la llegada de la guerra civil que casi acaba con ellos. ¿Qué pasó realmente durante la Danza de dragones? ¿Por qué era tan peligroso acercarse a Valyria después de la Maldición? ¿Cómo era Poniente cuando los dragones dominaban los cielos? Estas, y otras muchas, son las preguntas a las que responde esta monumental crónica, narrada por un culto maestre de la Ciudadela, que anticipa el ya conocido universo de George R.R. Martin. Fuego y sangre brindará a los lectores la oportunidad de tener otra visión de la fascinante historia de Poniente. Esta obra, magníficamente ilustrada con 80 láminas inéditas de Doug Wheatley, se convertirá, sin duda, en una lectura imprescindible para todos los fans de la aclamada serie.

Download or read book House of the Dragon written by Mightytech Book Publishing and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than three years after the end of the original series, HBO's massive success Game of Thrones gets its first of many planned spin-offs with the August 21 premiere of HOUSE OF THE Dragon. Here is everything you need to know if you're wondering how the series fits into the realm of the Seven Kingdoms (and just how many odd, hardly pronounceable names you're going to have to memorize). A new game begins Given that House of the Dragon is a prequel that takes place nearly 200 years before Game of Thrones, these events aren't particularly relevant to it. However, the conflict and tension surrounding the Targaryen rightful heirs and the sexist lines of succession that were central to Daenerys and Jon's dynamic-or would have been, if it had been given enough room to develop in the final season-is amplified in the new show. That's correct, there will once again be a battle for the Iron Throne, with all the intrigue and treachery that goes along with it and, now, even more dragons. Before Robert's Rebellion, which toppled the Mad King, and even earlier than Daenerys' ascent and fall, the new series focuses on House Targaryen at their pinnacle of power in the Seven Kingdoms. Additionally, a large number of Targaryens rode and fought with dragons during the period when it is set, when dragons were an integral part of daily life. House of the Dragon is a song of fire and fire if Game of Thrones was a song of ice and fire. Or perhaps Fire and Blood, since that is also the name of the novel that served as the basis for the new show. The 700+ page fictional history of the Targaryen dynasty from the time of Aegon the Conqueror, the first Targaryen to invade Westeros with dragons after fleeing the doomed city of Old Valyria in Essos, is a spin-off of George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, on which Game of Thrones was based. The Dance of the Dragons, a civil war in which Targaryen turned against Targaryen and dragon fought a dragon in a vicious and deadly struggle for dominance, proved to be the beginning of the end for the clan. House doesn't cover the entire novel, but rather a very particular period that is covered in it. The most intriguing aspect of the series based on Fire and Blood is that, although the major war events are described in the book, there is a lot of space for interpretation and artistic license. Games Masters The fact that House of the Dragon isn't being produced by Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss should give you some comfort if you were one of the many Game of Thrones fans who felt let down by the series conclusion. Instead, Ryan Condal, who previously created and produced the science fiction program Colony, and George R. R. Martin themselves are co-creators and executive producers. Condal and Miguel Sapochnik, who is renowned for directing some of the greatest and most enduring Game of Thrones episodes, including "Hardhome," "Battle of the Bastards," and "The Winds of Winter," are also co-showrunners. The soundtrack for the House of the Dragon will also be composed by Ramin Djawadi, who is also responsible for the magnificent score for Game of Thrones. You might expect to recognize familiar Westeros places, house colours, and symbols in the show's visual style, but since House is set almost two centuries earlier, many things appear very different. After all, the Targaryens (and the Seven Kingdoms as a whole) are thriving during this period of debauchery. More swords create the framework of the Iron Throne, making it look even more menacing and more as it does in Martin's books.

Book excerpt: For the first time, all five novels in the epic fantasy series that inspired HBO’s Game of Thrones are together in one eBook bundle. An immersive entertainment experience unlike any other, A Song of Ice and Fire has earned George R. R. Martin—dubbed “the American Tolkien” by Time magazine—international acclaim and millions of loyal readers. Now this bundle collects the entire monumental cycle in the most convenient format available: A GAME OF THRONES A CLASH OF KINGS A STORM OF SWORDS A FEAST FOR CROWS A DANCE WITH DRAGONS “One of the best series in the history of fantasy.”—Los Angeles Times Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King’s Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert’s name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse—unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen’s brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister—the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki—whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys. “Long live George Martin . . . a literary dervish, enthralled by complicated characters and vivid language, and bursting with the wild vision of the very best tale tellers.”—The New York Times
