Aebram Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 The "Factual History" post that's pinned to the top of this forum says that "Fire and Blood" includes the full text of some novellas. My copy doesn't have any of them. Where can I get a copy that includes this material? I bought the e-book; do I need to get a printed version? Thanks -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which, to be clear, were all incorporated directly into F&B, as the chapters of those names. So you're not missing anything, @Aebram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aebram Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 My copy of F&B contains a chapter titled "The Sons of the Dragon," but it doesn't read like a novella. It's written in the style of a history book, just like all the other chapters. My copy does not contain any chapters titled "The Rogue Prince" or "The Princess and the Queen."

Ran Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Right, forgot some titles changed. Regardless, the novellas were basically reworked to fit into the F&B book. You aren't really missing anything, except for minor tweaks GRRM did between the novella-form and the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaB includes the novella 'The Sons of the Dragon' in an enlarged and corrected version. The novella called 'The Rogue Prince' is an abridged version of the FaB chapter 'Heirs of the Dragon - A Question of Succession', while the novella 'The Princess and the Queen' is a very much abridged version of the FaB chapters 'The Dying of the Dragons' - more precisely, of the sub-chapters called 'The Blacks and the Greens', 'A Son for a Son', 'The Red Dragon and the Gold', 'Rhaenyra Triumphant' and 'Rhaenyra Overthrown'. No material from the final sub-chapter of 'The Dying of the Dragons', 'The Short, Sad Reign of Aegon II' was included in 'The Princess and the Queen' which ended with Rhaenyra's death.

As @Ran said, it's all compiled in FaB. As to the question about titles, it's most likely in there, just under a different tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
