House of Fire & Blood – Episode 13 “A Window in Your Local Cattery”

Share This Post

This entry is part 13 of 45 in the series House of Fire & Blood

This piece was written during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the TV series being covered here wouldn’t exist.

What if George R. R. Martin’s Fire and Blood was written more like HBO’s House of the Dragon? Caroline and Gretchen analyze Martin’s work from this perspective and search for hidden stories in the text.

This week, Caroline and Gretchen continue their analysis of Fire & Blood with the seventh chapter, A Surfeit of Rulers Section 1. Alyssa Velaryon takes a back seat and definitely doesn’t do anything or make any decisions, while the Best Boy Jaehaerys trains with his sword for funsies and Alysanne is… also here!
