What makes Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon What makes Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon so immersive? Great world-building. I have studied how author George R.R. Martin uses names (like Stark and Targaryen) to develop separate and distinct identities for the characters and feudal houses and to build an immersive, believable world. Check out the article “Names and World-Building in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones” on ResearchGate. #gameofthrones #houseofdragons #HouseoftheDragon #houseofthedragonseason2 #fantasy #worldbuilding #georgerrmartin #onomastics
