This book explores many of the theological and religious themes
inherent in the Game of Thrones HBO television series and George
R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels. Written for academics
yet accessible for the layperson, the chapters explore themes of
power, religion, and sacred institutions in Westeros; Christian
ecclesiology in the Night's Watch and the religion of the Iron
Islands; Augustinian notions of evil in the Night King and
anthropology in the Seven; Orientalism, Hinduism, and the many
worldviews in the World of Ice and Fire, and the series more
controversial and disturbing themes of rape and death. Theology and
Game of Thrones will appeal to theology and religious studies
scholars and fans alike as it explores these elements in Martin's
complex fantasy epic.
