The History Behind Game of Thrones: The North Remembers Book Launch

The Castle Hunter

A wall in the distant north cuts the world in two. Ruthless seaborne warriors
raid the coasts from their war galleys, yearning to regain lost glories. A
young nobleman and his kin are slaughtered under a banner of truce within
a mighty castle. A warrior king becomes a legend when he smites his foe
with one swing of his axe during a nation-forging battle. Yet this isn’t
Westeros – it’s Scotland.

Join author and presenter David C. Weinczok for the launch of his book, ‘The
History Behind Game of Thrones: The North Remembers’ and discover the
characters, battles, landscapes, and lore that wove their way into George
R. R. Martin’s world of ice and fire.

An hour-long talk will cover
highlights from the book, followed by a brief reception and opportunity to
speak with the author and fellow Game of Thrones and Scottish history
enthusiasts.
