House of the Dragon is a prequel set roughly a century before Game of Thrones, charting the internal collapse of a Targaryen dynasty at the peak of its strength. The crisis begins when King Viserys names his daughter Rhaenyra heir, then later has a son — leaving two rival claims that neither court custom nor loyalty can reconcile. The series documents the slow drift toward the devastating civil war called the Dance of the Dragons.

About House of the Dragon

House of the Dragon is an American fantasy drama television series created by George R. R. Martin and Ryan Condal for HBO. A prequel to Game of Thrones (2011–2019), it is the second television series in Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire franchise. Based on parts of Martin's 2018 book Fire & Blood, the series begins about 100 years after the Seven Kingdoms are united by the Targaryen conquest, nearly 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, and 172 years before the birth of Daenerys Targaryen. Featuring an ensemble cast, the show portrays the events leading up to the decline of House Targaryen, a devastating war of succession known as the "Dance of the Dragons".
