Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Set 300 years before A Song of Ice and Fire, this work offers a comprehensive history of the Targaryens in Westeros, narrated by Archmaester Gyldayn. It chronicles their conquest that unified the Seven Kingdoms under Targaryen rule, leading to the catastrophic civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons, which nearly ended their dynasty. This masterful account brings the thrilling history of House Targaryen to life, showcasing the legacy of the only dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria. The narrative begins with Aegon the Conqueror, the architect of the Iron Throne, and follows the generations of Targaryens who fought to maintain their power, culminating in the civil war that threatened their reign. Key questions are explored, such as the events of the Dance of the Dragons, the dangers of Valyria post-Doom, and the notorious deeds of Maegor the Cruel. With over eighty new black-and-white illustrations by Doug Wheatley, this essential chronicle, akin to Gibbon's historical works, provides readers with a deeper appreciation for the complex and often violent history of Westeros, filled with intrigue and drama.
