Summary:
"In Game of Thrones, potent and intimate narratives of love and passion can be found within the grand landscapes of heroism, honour and death. In this vital follow-up to Winter Is Coming (2015), acclaimed medievalist Carolyne Larrington explores themes of power, blood-kin, lust and sex in order to put entirely fresh meanings on the show of the century"-- Provided by publisher.
