Science of Game of Thrones: From the Genetics of Royal Incest to the Chemistry of Death by Molten Gold - Sifting Fact from Fantasy in the Seven Ki | 
pickThis is my review for a book I just finished. I miss #westeros and #gameofthrones. I‘ve spent all year reading the books and I‘m sad that I‘m caught up with everyone else. I loved reading about the magic and the dragons and the characters. The author made me care about all of these characters so hopefully, he‘s working on the next book.
Had to send this to a friend I‘m co-watching with.
pickHave you ever wondered if dragons could really exist? How similar are napalm and wildfire? Could a person die from a golden crown a la Viserys? Questions, answers with a healthy dose of humor. GoT addicts need to read this!
My son's current reads are the bottom 3, mine are the top 3. I'm also reading book 3 of the Demon Cycle series on my Kindle. He reads way more nonfiction than I do!
pickThis was a nice quick read.
The topics aren‘t covered in depth, but it is a good look into potential parallels between the fantastical things in Game of Thrones (Books and Show) and the real world.
Is it possible for a reptile the size of a dragon to fly?
Can a weapon be as sharp as Valyrian steel?
Could we make wildfire?
My fave sections covered virgin reptile births, sword tempering, zombies, inventing languages and genes ☺️

Of course, there‘s no way to know for certain if this dragon-fear theory is correct. But I must make a mental note to never show vervet monkeys that Disney animated Robin Hood, where all the villains we know and love from Sherwood Forest are played by lions, pythons and vultures. It‘s sad to know they will never be able to relax and enjoy Friar Tuck heartily portrayed with gusto by a badger
