Beginning with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, this volume recounts the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to The Dance of the Dragons--the bloody civil war that nearly put an end to Targaryen rule for good. Straight from the pen of George R. R. Martin, and featuring more than eighty-five illustrations, Fire & Blood gives readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros." -- Back cover. 700 1 $a Wheatley, Doug, $e illustrator. 700 1 $a Martin, George R.
