Not all books were illegal in Bradbury’s society though. But if you were caught with a book it would get burn. Many people claim firemen were similar to how our firemen are today(putting out fire and saving people lives) instead of causing fires.

    The theory that I think is most likely to come true is Jon Snow is not Ned Stark’s son but the offspring of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. What has been repeatedly said throughout the series is that Lyanna Stark was kidnapped by Rhaegar Targaryen but I would like to denounce that. Rhaegar was portrayed as a monster like his father, the Mad King. But many of these criticisms were made by enemies of the Targaryens. Such as the Starks, the Boratheons, the Lannisters, even Viserys Targaryen spoke choice words of his older brother, Rhaegar, to his little sister Daenerys (who was born after Rhaegar’s death).
