书籍简介

由《娱乐周刊》和HBO的James Hibberd撰写的这部热门剧集的官方、权威的口述历史，得到了《娱乐周刊》和HBO的全力和官方支持。

乔治·r·r·马丁曾经是一位失意的电视编剧，他把自己的畅销奇幻小说《冰与火之歌》写成了一部无法拍成电影的传奇小说，只是局限于他丰富的想象力。之后，两位首次创作电视剧的编剧与HBO合作，试图改编马丁的这部史诗巨作。我们都看过这部获得艾美奖的奇幻剧接下来的八季。但《权力的游戏》还有一个故事没有讲出来:13年的幕后努力实现了这一非凡的现象。

在《猛火杀不了龙》中，《娱乐周刊》的获奖作家James Hibberd记录了《权力的游戏》中未透露的故事，从创作团队的第一次会议到上演大结局，以及所有镜头前和镜头外的争斗。这本书收录了50多个新采访，罕见而令人惊叹的照片，以及前所未有的对制片人、演员和剧组人员的接触，这些人把一个不可能的想法变成了世界上最大的展览。

The official, definitive oral history of the blockbuster show by the writer with the absolute best access, EW's James Hibberd, with the full and official support of both EW and HBO.

Praise from George R.R. Martin:

"James Hibberd covered Game of Thrones from start to finish, and he knows where all the bodies are buried. It's all here, in his oral history of the series: how it began, how it ended, dragons and direwolves, what went on in front of the cameras and what went on behind the scenes, the triumphs and the stumbles, the tough decisions, the forks in the road, the reasons why. Actors, directors, showrunners, producers, executives, even me... Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon has it all, everything you ever wanted to know. Game of Thrones was an amazing ride. Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon is an amazing read.”

The official, definitive oral history of the blockbuster show from Entertainment Weekly’s James Hibberd. 

It was supposed to be impossible. George R.R. Martin was a frustrated television writer who created his bestselling A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy novels to be an unfilmable saga bound only by the limits of his vast imagination. Then a pair of first-time TV writers teamed with HBO to try and adapt Martin’s epic. We’ve all seen the eight seasons of the Emmy-winning fantasy series that came next. But there is one Game of Thrones tale that has yet to be told: the 13-year behind-the-scenes struggle to pull off this extraordinary phenomenon. 

In Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon, award-winning Entertainment Weekly writer James Hibberd chronicles the untold and uncensored story of Game of Thrones, from the creative team’s first meetings to staging the series finale and all the on-camera battles and off-camera struggles in between. The book draws from more than 50 revealing new interviews, rare and stunning photos, and unprecedented access to the producers, cast, and crew who took an impossible idea and made it into the biggest show in the world.
