This book takes us through the history of targariyens from Aegon 1 the conqueror to Aegon III . This book never tells us what exactly happened but just the pov of the court jestor , the septon and the maestor which gives us interesting views. It starts with Aegons conquest and takes us through all their descendants .
Even though this book was really a masterpiece , it left me thinking more about some things which were not covered like what exactly happened during the vakarian doom , where did balerion take Aerea , what happens after Aegon the III etc .
Reading the book makes us understand how the targariyens lost their dragons and lost their kingdoms too.
This book has a lot of characters and with similar names it's quite difficult to remember but keep looking
At the family chart and you'll get there. Overall if you read this , it is very interesting with a unique way of writing which keeps u engaged. The illustrations help us to imagine even better. A must read for game of thrones lovers .
