Some Fictional Heraldry


For those of you who are interested in such things (my wife is getting a bit hooked on the series, though I have managed to manfully resist it to date), there's an interesting article by Brian Copperman over on the Pro Heraldica USA blog entitled "Game of Thrones - Family Crests & Rich Heraldry" which discusses the heraldry and house emblems which can be found in the HBO series Game of Thrones (based on the books by George R.R. Martin).

It's a great little article that shows the power of heraldry, even in the world of fiction.  Please feel free to drop by the Pro Heraldica USA blog and check out all of the heraldry of the houses in this series presented there.  It can be found on-line at http://proheraldica.com/blog/game-of-thrones-family-crests/
