How HOUSE OF THE DRAGON Changed ‘The Red Sowing’ From the Book
Queen Rhaenyra’s power is backed by her dragon riders. However, numerous Targaryen bastards who sought the throne met their ends on Dragonstone, an incident infamously referred to as “The Red Sowing” in “Fire & Blood.” Though the TV show “House of the Dragons” deviated significantly from George R.R. Martin’s book, the end result remains consistent: the Blacks have grown more powerful than ever. Notably, there are intriguing new dragon riders introduced in the series that fans should watch out for.
