“Fire & Blood” By George R.R. Martin Review

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. Fire and Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart.

This book is amazing. It was one of the best books I’ve read this year so far at least. 

The art in this book is stunning and it really adds more to this book. They were really good and amazing adds to the book.

This book is in another book from the A Song Of Ice And Fire series but this is book happens 300 ish years before the first book in the main series which means that it is sort of the backstory to the whole series.

I personally had an amazing time reading this book, but there were couple of moments were I thought that they were unnecessary. The first half of this book is very fast and it only gives us couple of sentences about previous kings and other Targaryens. Which really annoyed me because I wish that we could get more of these previous Targaryens before the main characters in the House Of The Dragon series.

The characters in this book are amazing, and they really felt like real life human beings rather than a fantasy book characters. Most of the characters in this book were so amazing that I just can’t explain. There were some characters were I felt were super flat and boring in a way. 

The plot in this book is amazing. There is so much action here, there are deaths (as you expect from George R.R Martin), there are a lot of family and politics drama and so much more. 

The writing style here is super amazing, it really is on level with the rest of books in the A Song Of Ice And Fire series. And really shows that A Song Of Ice And Fire series might be one of the best book series ever and that George R.R. Martin might be one of the best authors to ever live. 

This book is super interesting, enjoyable, fun and it really blows you off to another universe. 

I Give This Book 4 / 5
