HouseoftheDragon has re-worked its two female leads considerably at the expense of some choice material from the source.

Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Season 1 of House of the Dragon.If no one else’s review matters, George R. R. Martin’s public thoughts on House of the Dragon must be welcome to Ryan Condal, Miguel Sapochnik, and HBO. The man behind The Song of Ice and Fire has had nothing but good things to say about the prequel series, particularly Paddy Considine’s portrayal of Viserys Targaryen, and if he has any qualms about the adaptation, he’s kept them to himself. Elio M.

Nevertheless, there are certain solid facts about the events and personalities behind the Dance established, and among them are the personalities of Rhaenyra and Alicent. Neither has appeared as an active character in Martin’s writing to date; as figures remembered as distant history, they are necessary sketches more than flesh and bone; but the sketches are detailed. As a child, Rhaenyra is beautiful, charming, and pampered.

But comparatively significant in reframing the Dance is the Song of Ice and Fire, Aegon the Conqueror’s prophetic dream handed down from king to heir of a great darkness that will descend from beyond the North and destroy the world of the living unless Westeros is united under the Dragon’s banners. While such a prophecy is hinted at among the various Ice and Fire books, and certain Targaryens are greatly concerned with magic and portents, Viserys is not one of them.

These Changes Deepen Rhaenyra but Cost Alicent Her Agency I’ve been of two minds about the changes made to Rhaenyra. On the one hand, Game of Thrones bungled most things magical and prophetic connected to the Targaryens, so all this talk of the Song is doomed to an unsatisfying pay-off once both shows can be watched together in full. There’s a fire and a darkness to Martin’s Rhaenyra that I miss on TV.
