Description

Of the five contenders for power, one is dead, another is in disfavor, and still the wars rage as violently as ever, in the third book of this epic cycle. Joffrey, of House Lannister, sits on the Iron Throne, the uneasy ruler of the Seven Kingdoms. His bitter rival Lord Stannis stands defeated and disgraced, the victim of the sorceress who holds him in her evil thrall. But young Robb, of House Stark, still rules the North from the fortress of Riverrun, and plots against his despised Lannister enemies, even as they hold his sister hostage at King's Landing. And making her way across a blood-drenched continent is the exiled queen Daenerys, mistress of the only three dragons still left in the world. The basis for the wildly popular HBO television series Game of Thrones, A Song of Ice and Fire is a masterful cycle of epic novels by multiple Hugo and Nebula Award winner George R.R. Martin, depicting an entire world of magic and chivalry where seasons can last for a lifetime, and winter is rapidly approaching. "It's the only fantasy series I'd put on a level with J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.... It's a fantasy series for hip, smart people, even those who don't read fantasy."—Chicago Tribune
