House of Dragons Mesmerizes Audiences
House of Dragons mesmerizes audiences. The cinematic prequel to Game of Thrones premiered Sunday, August 21 on HBO. According to HBO, the story centers around the Targaryens, the ancestors of Khaleesi or Daenerys Targaryen, The Mother of Dragons. In House of Dragons, King Viserys must determine an heir after his wife and son die during childbirth. He goes against tradition and names his daughter Princess Rhanerya as his successor. Rhaenerya, like Daenerys is also a dragon rider. The TV shows, Game of Thrones and House of Dragons, due to their graphic sexual content and intense battle scenes, are not kid-friendly. Family members' and others' plots against the House Targaryen are central to episode 2 of House of Dragons. Tune in on Sundays on HBO to see what unfolds.
