Reviews

Carroll's book is a useful addition to scholarship on the Game of Thrones phenomenon and how Martin's medievalism is conceived on the page and then adapted and popularized for twenty-first century audiences, and to medievalism and the fantasy genre more generally.--PARERGON This study highlights the difficulties of escaping certain assumptions and generalizations. The result is a fascinating tension between medievalism and cynical modernism, and, whatever his sources, an understanding that Martin's plot lines and motifs attempt to work against or undercut medieval romance structures and its neomedieval descendants in order to create a believable world.--FOLKLORE
