House Targaryen takes what is theirs with Fire and Blood.

So, it is only appropriate that we have an all-new violent and dramatic fantasy series that takes us back to Westeros and 172 years before the birth of Game of Thrones icon Daenerys Targaryen.

HBO series House of the Dragon follows the reign of King Viserys I Targaryen (Paddy Considine) as he must weigh up who will come to succeed him, with various members of the cast of characters ready to be his heir.

Among them is his roguish brother Prince Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) and Viserys’ own daughter, Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Milly Alcock and Emma D’Arcy).

Who will reign supreme in the eventual Dance of Dragons?

Never fear, RadioTimes.com has all you need to watch the Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon.
