George RR Martin and Ryan J. Condal are working on a new Game of Thrones prequel. A series that, breaking the schemes that Martin himself had commented not long ago, places the action 300 years before the events seen in the original series and will focus on House Targaryen. Exactly, the one to which Daenerys, the mother of dragons, belongs.
300 years before Game of Thrones
If after the end of Game of Thrones you wanted to know more about Westeros and its stories, you are in luck. We have known for a long time that there will be several prequels, although not long ago it was commented that the first one would focus on a time far removed from the events of the original series, more than 10.000 years.

However, some specialized media such as The Hollywood Reporter or Deadline have given new information about what would be a new prequel that would take place with the participation of George RR Martin himself and Ryan J. Condol -creator of the dramatic science fiction series. 'Colony'-.
There is hardly any data about this new prequel, but according to what is said, it will be focused on what happened 300 years before what we saw in the Game of Thrones series and everything will revolve around the House of Targaryens. That is to say, taking advantage of the Fire & Blood book as the basis of the stories, everything will begin with Aegon the Conqueror.
Aegon the Conqueror was responsible for building the iron throne, the first of the Targaryen lineage and about which we learned something in the series. From there, it seems that the battles will also have an important weight and it is assumed that a dragon will appear. However, there is not much data and the only thing we can do is what Martin himself has already commented: read Fire & Blood to get our own theories of the stories that will be told.
HBO logically has not made any comment, but knowing the success of the series, we do not believe that it will let go of the possibility of continuing to squeeze this goose that lays the golden eggs that seems to be Martin and his stories about Westeros. Let's see if, when the time comes, it's capable of hooking like Game of Thrones did. At least during the first seasons, because the last one continues to generate controversy when it is talked about among the most fans of the series.
Fire & Blood
Fire & Blood (Fire and Blood) is the fantastic novel that George RR Martin released on October 20, 2018. In it, treats the complete history of the House Targaryen, a royal lineage that later appears and we have known from the Game of Thrones series and the Song of Ice and Fire books.
This story was intended to be published after finishing the main saga books, but it seems that the material was growing rapidly and its author decided to publish before. Thus, this is the first book of two that would tell the full story.
