House of Fire & Blood – Episode 41 “Serendipity Targaryen”

Share This Post

This entry is part 41 of 55 in the series House of Fire & Blood

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 with a Question of Succession Part 4. Rhaenyra marries Laenor and Criston Cole reacts very normally, while Daemon marries Laena and they honeymoon very normally. And these damn kids just can’t get along!

Also the last half hour of this is about Bridgerton, sorry not sorry!
