Winter is coming : the medieval world of Game of thrones
Larrington, Carolyne2016
Books
Game of Thrones is a phenomenon. As Carolyne Larrington reveals - in this essential companion to George R.R. Martin's fantasy novels and the HBO mega-hit series based on them - the show is the epitome of water-cooler TV. Discussing novels and TV series alike, Larrington explores - among other topics - sigils, giants, dragons and direwolves in medieval texts; ravens, old gods and the Weirwood in Norse myth; and a gothic, exotic orient in the eastern continent, Essos.
