Helen Keen is an award-winning comedy writer and performer. Her first solo stand-up show, It Is Rocket Science, was picked up by BBC Radio 4, won the 2013 WISE Media Award, and was short-listed for the 2014 Writers Guild Award for Best Radio Comedy.
Review:
"The Science of Game of Thrones is required reading for anyone harboring a mote of curiosity about how magic manifests in our world in the guise of amazing real-life creatures and phenomena. It's also a great gift for the adorable know-it-alls in our lives who would love nothing more than to impress friends and woo the ladies by reciting the engineering calculation that explains how a baby dragon could immolate a grown man."―Salon
"A breezy, funny, but thoroughly researched survey of the fantastic wonders on 'Game of Thrones' . . . covers topics ranging from the sexual biology of dragons to how trees talk to each other and their environment."―Wall Street Journal
"You could call it the mad scientist's guide to Westeros . . . a humorous look back at English medieval discoveries that make their way into the popular fantasy HBO series and books. Perfect for 'GoT'' fans looking to pass the time until the next season."―The New York Post
