Description
Centuries before A Game of Thrones, an even greater game began, one that set the skies alight with dragon flame and saw the Seven Kingdoms turned to ash.
So began the Targaryens’ bloody rule, with fire and blood. Setting brother against brother, mother against daughter, and dragon against dragon. Chronicled by a learned maester of the Citadel, this thrilling and bloody history of Westeros tells the story of where the battle for the Iron Throne began....
This audio edition now includes an exclusive interview between George R.R. Martin and historian Dan Jones.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

More of a chore than a pleasure!
I'm a big fan of George R R Martin, but found this book heavy going. Despite the excellent narration, I was left feeling I needed a pen and paper in order to take notes in an effort to track character, dates and events!
I was relieved when the book finished and hope I never hear Mushroom quoted again!

Why this book?
Not so much a novel more a shopping list. It’s a pity the author did not use the creativity expended on this creation to finish Ice and Fire.

Very good , well read and detailed
Its written very well and positioned from the perspective of a narrator - historian . Nice fresh approach that makes you wonder how much is true. It puts a lot of perspective to the original Ice and fire saga.
Very amusing and never dull.
One downside : it ends closely after the civil war: Dance of Dragons events. Thus its a bit misleading because you expect the whole story until Aerys II.

OK for pseudo-history buffs ...
... but not so good if you were wanting a story like the GoT series. No one can fault Mr Martin when it comes to the depth and scale of his universe, but I really prefer his story-telling prowse. Nevertheless, it's well narrated and structured.

Waffle of the worst kind
Terrible love story with the same crap regurgitated again and again with the same names used in different lines of succession. Don't waste your time or credits. If only you'd put so much effort in making a real story instead of being so clever to go over the same story again and again and again just seen from a different view..... BORING!

country specific?
why are so many books specific to a country? I've found a lot of these books that I've wanted to listen to, most of these are a part of popular book or TV series.

Tedious though very thorough
This book is a little like the TV series house of dragons written from an academic point of view. I feel like the meat on the bones is very much missing. If you like stories told primarily about rulers and their wayward offspring then you may well enjoy this book. I missed the everyman in this history. Ironic that Historian like Adrian Goldsworthy really bring their historical books to life in a way this failed for me.
George has such prose that not to fully utalise it feels like waste. This book was too dry and pales in comparison to the energetic and full formed world expressed in Game of Thrones. A must for the die hardship but I found it great as a nightcap to send me to sleep night after night a few pages at time. Enjoy

Nice addition to the history of House Targaryen
I did it like very much but it is too short as it does not include the whole history of the house Targaryen, it ends with start if reign of king Aegon III.

Not too bad
Wish there was more story and less repetitive. King ascends to the throne, marries and has children, dies, children fight for throne, war, war, war. Someone wins. Repeat.

Intransparenz... ist nur die halbe Geschichte
Abgesehen von den sermonischen Eigenschaften der Chronik war ich am Ende wie vor den Kopf gestoßen, als ich feststellen durfte, dass das nur die *halbe* Chronik des Hauses Targaryen ist, die völlig abrupt um das Jahr 135 sowas endet. Das war vorher nirgendwo ersichtlich und deshalb fühle ich mich mal wieder bei audible um mein Geld betrogen... (hatte das schon oft hier, dass Hälften von Büchern als das Gesamtbuch präsentiert wurden und nur bei extrem aufwändiger Recherche als Teilpublikation erkenntlich waren)

Für die, die fiktionale Geschichte mögen perfekt.
Ich habe mir das Hörbuch im Hinblick auf den Serienstart von "House of the Dragon" geholt, weil der Re-read vom Buch mir aktuell nicht ganz passt. Daher wusste ich natürlich, was auf mich zukommt und das hat mir ähnlich gefallen wie beim ersten lesen. Ich find das Konzept von fiktionalen Geschichtsbüchern generell spannend und besonders, wie George hier mit der Unzuverlässigkeit von Quellen arbeitet ist witzig... also so witzig wie das fiktionale Geschichtsbuch in Charakter geschrieben von einem alten Archmaester sein kann.
Entgegen dem, was eine andere Rezension hier behauptet ist das Hörbuch auch soweit ich das sehe komplett, beide enden mit dem Kapitel "The Lysene Spring and the End of Regency" ca 135 Jahre nach der Landung in Westeros. Ich nehme an da gab es ein Missverständnis, 300 years *before* heißt halt nicht, dass es alle 300 Jahre abdeckt, besonders weil Archmaester Gyldayn mehrere Bücher zu der Targaryen verfasst hat.
Simon Vance liest sehr angenehm und ich hoffe, dass er auch weitere Bücher übernimmt, sei es die Haupt-Asioaf-Serie oder eben diese Offshoots

Boring and tedious
This is awful. An endless Wikipedia article. Dates and names. That's all. No narrative flow. Any real medieval chronicle is more engaging than this. The only thing I liked was the reader's voice.

Anstrengend
Eine endlose Aufzählung von Namen, Titeln und Regionen mit wenig Handlung. Das Buch ist nur für eingefleischte Fans.

Great for lore nerds, but names-names-names

Only for hardcore History fans who wait for S02
I have to admit I was one of those people who just couldn't wait for season two of House of the Dragon and I have to admit, after reading/listening to the book, I am even more impressed by the show. There isn't much more here than a rough outline, no witty dialogues or interesting twists. It really does read like a fiction version of a good history book. For hardcore fans I can recommend this one, but only if you are able to imagine how much better the series will probably be
