An in-depth look at the philosophical issues behind HBOs Game of
Thrones television series and the books that inspired it


George R.R. Martins New York Times bestselling epic fantasy book
series, A Song of Ice and Fire, and the HBO television show
adapted from it, have earned critical acclaim and inspired
fanatic devotion. This book delves into the many philosophical
questions that arise in this complex, character-driven series,

including: Is it right for a good king to usurp the throne of a
one and murder his family? How far should you go to protect
your family and its secrets? In a fantasy universe with medieval
mores and ethics, can female characters reflect modern feminist
ideals?

Timed for the premiere of the second season of the HBO Game of
Thrones series Gives new perspectives on the characters,
storylines, and themes of Game of Thrones Draws on great
philosophers from ancient Greece to modern America to explore
intriguing topics such as the strange creatures of Westeros, the
incestuous relationship of Jaime and Cersei Lannister, and what
the kings of Westeros can show us about virtue and honor (or the
lack thereof) as they play their game of thrones

Essential reading for fans, Game of Thrones and Philosophy will
enrich your experience of your favorite medieval fantasy series.
