joncassie 's review for:

Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin

4.0

I'm a bit surprised by how much I enjoyed this book, as a fictional history in 600 pages seems like a tall order, even for me. But in fact, it read quick quickly and is just full of intriguing and delightful anecdotes. I wonder how GRRM would do as an author of actual history, but, given his scant bibliography with these Targaryens, who can really say?
