House of Fire & Blood – Episode 29 “Jaehaerys Remembered the Dornish Fleet”

Share This Post

This entry is part 29 of 52 in the series House of Fire & Blood

What if George R. R. Martin’s Fire and Blood was written more like HBO’s House of the Dragon? Caroline and Gretchen analyze Martin’s work from this perspective and search for hidden stories in the text.

This week Caroline and Gretchen continue their analysis of Fire & Blood with the eleventh chapter, The Long Reign Section 4. Jaehaerys gets an absolute bee in his bonnet about getting his 13-year-old daughter, Daella, married ASAP – fortunately Alysanne is able to delay until she is the ripe old age of 16 🙂 and then Jaehaerys & Sons defeat those dastardly Dornish! The best king everyone!
