Reviews

Maulik Maharjan ，

The decision to read this book was greatly influenced by HBO’s House of The Dragon announcement。 The books felt very much different from the ASOIAF series in terms of writing and narration。 GRRM could have possibly written five volumes to explain the Targaryen line in details， which felt much cut off as it was explained through Mushroom or Munkun。 Thoroughly enjoyed this book。 Cannot wait to see how HBO adapts the Dance of The Dragon on screen。

There are a bajillion characters to keep up with in the GOT/ASOIAF universe。 This plus The World OF Ice And Fire made it easier for me and provided some visuals for me as well。 If you want to go down this rabbit hole of information and are a fan of the show and universe， then check this out。

Entertaining。 Went a little fast but it’s not a novel of one story。

Meghan Lowry ，

Reads like a history bookIt is long and overly detailed。 There are some very intriguing plots and surprising turns。 It is difficult to keep up with all the characters including their dragons。 Google the family tree and maps as you go as the book itself does no such thing。 This book is for diehard Game of Throne fans。

DNF I fell in love with this read at the beginning and I have to say George R R Martin does not disappoint。 But because of the current hbo series I decided to not finish this book due to spoilers so I will come back to it when the series ends。

Es un libro con un comienzo interesante narrando la conquista y el reinado de Aegon I。 Los sucesos que le siguieron al reinado de los Targaryen。 Hasta la Danza de Dragones se sintió interesante， el resto solo sirvió para entender más la cronología。

3。5 -4 stars。 By the way people talk about this book and the way it is written， I expected it to be very dry and didn't give it a chance for a long time。 I must say I found it mostly very readable after getting through the first couple of chapters。 Since the book covers a long time of Targaryen history， some parts might be a little slow， but George also does a good job of making situations and characters interesting。 And hateful or dumb too in some cases。On the other hand it's true that reading 3。5 -4 stars。 By the way people talk about this book and the way it is written， I expected it to be very dry and didn't give it a chance for a long time。 I must say I found it mostly very readable after getting through the first couple of chapters。 Since the book covers a long time of Targaryen history， some parts might be a little slow， but George also does a good job of making situations and characters interesting。 And hateful or dumb too in some cases。On the other hand it's true that reading "person A said this， person B said that" can be a little repetitive at some pointsThe creepy elements were a nice surprise， and the lack of certainty gives rise to interesting thoughts and theories and makes some events quite mysterious。 I'm sure a less casual reader will extract more from the book。Maybe the biggest difficulty when reading this book is the sheer amount of characters。 Better drawings of the family tree would be helpful to not get confused when there are so many characters with similar names， but George does a good job with this through the book， repeating information when might be needed and choosing when to introduce the information。 。。。more
