'All men must die': or 'Valar Morghulis', as the traditional Essos
greeting is rendered in High Valyrian. And die they do - in
prodigious numbers; in imaginatively varied and gruesome ways; and
often in terror within the viciously unpredictable world that is
HBO's sensational evocation of Game of Thrones. Epic in scope and
in imaginative breadth, the stories that are brought to life tell
of the dramatic rise and fall of nations, the brutal sweeping away
of old orders and the advent of new autarchs in the eternal quest
for dominion. Yet, as this book reveals, many potent and intimate
narratives of love and passion can be found within these grand
landscapes of heroism, honour and death. They focus on strong
relationships between women and family, as well as among the
anti-heroes, the 'cripples, bastards and broken things'. In this
vital follow-up to Winter Is Coming (2015), acclaimed medievalist
Carolyne Larrington explores themes of power, blood-kin, lust and
sex in order to draw entirely fresh meanings out of the show of the
century.
