¿Tu pareja se acaba de quedar embarazada? ¿Todos tus amigos están teniendo niños y te has quedado atrás con un vocabulario desconocido que incluye palabros como Apiretal o Maxi-cosi? ¿Sientes, cual Rey León, la llamada de la especie a perpetuarse? Entonces este es tu libro. Aquí no encontrarás realidades edulcoradas ni miradas de color de rosa: te lo vamos a contar con pelos y señales. Lo bueno y lo menos bueno. Garantizamos sonrisas y lágrimas (las tuyas y las de tu hijo) y sobre todo una aventura en la que más de una vez tendrás que releer estas páginas para encarar con humor algún momentillo comprometido. Y todo esto no te lo cuenta un cualquiera: Javier Reyero acumula unas cuantas horas de experiencia como encantado bipadre, después de muchos años como nopadre pensando que la paternidad no sería para él. Ríete a carcajada limpia con una mirada cargada de mordacidad sobre ese extraño y entrañable momento en el que tu vida simplemente se pone patas arriba.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to life in this masterly work, the inspiration for HBO’s Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon “The thrill of Fire & Blood is the thrill of all Martin’s fantasy work: familiar myths debunked, the whole trope table flipped.”—Entertainment Weekly Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen—the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria—took up residence on Dragonstone. Fire & Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart. What really happened during the Dance of the Dragons? Why was it so deadly to visit Valyria after the Doom? What were Maegor the Cruel’s worst crimes? What was it like in Westeros when dragons ruled the skies? These are but a few of the questions answered in this essential chronicle, as related by a learned maester of the Citadel and featuring more than eighty-five black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley—including five illustrations exclusive to the trade paperback edition. Readers have glimpsed small parts of this narrative in such volumes as The World of Ice & Fire, but now, for the first time, the full tapestry of Targaryen history is revealed. With all the scope and grandeur of Gibbon’s The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Fire & Blood is the first volume of the definitive two-part history of the Targaryens, giving readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros. Praise for Fire & Blood “A masterpiece of popular historical fiction.”—The Sunday Times “The saga is a rich and dark one, full of both the title’s promised elements. . . . It’s hard not to thrill to the descriptions of dragons engaging in airborne combat, or the dilemma of whether defeated rulers should ‘bend the knee,’ ‘take the black’ and join the Night’s Watch, or simply meet an inventive and horrible end.”—The Guardian
