If you want a gift for a fantasy reader, or a Game of Thrones fan, then this is perfect. Set 300 years before the events in A Song of Ice and Fire, FIRE AND BLOOD is the definitive history of the Targaryens in Westeros as told by Archmaester Gyldayn, and chronicles the conquest that united the Seven Kingdoms under Targaryen rule through to the Dance of the Dragons: the Targaryen civil war that nearly ended their dynasty forever. If you want to know what were Maegor the Cruel's worst crimes, or what it like in Westeros when dragons ruled the skies, this book will tell all. It’s a lovely hardcover edition, with eighty odd all-new black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley.
