After more than a decade devoted primarily to TV and screen work, Martin (The Armageddon Rag, 1983) makes a triumphant return to high fantasy with this extraordinarily rich new novel, the first of a trilogy. Beyond the Wall to the north, meanwhile, the Others are preparing their army of the dead to march south as the warmth of summer drains from the land. Some fight with sword and mace, others with magic and poison. In a world where the approaching winter will last four decades, kings and queens, knights and renegades struggle for control of a throne. Martin is the author of Fevre Dream, the ultimate science fiction horror novel, several collections of short stories and numerous scripts for television drama. ‘Fantasy literature has never shied away from grandeur, but the sheer-mind-boggling scope of this epic has sent other fantasy writers away shaking their heads… Its ambition: to construct the Twelve Caesars of fantasy fiction, with characters so venomous they could eat the Borgias.’ ‘Colossal, staggering… Martin captures all the intoxicating complexity of the Wars of the Roses or Imperial Rome in his imaginary world… one of the greats of fantasy literature.’ I couldn’t stop till I’d finished and it was dawn.’ ‘A Game of Thrones grabs hold and won’t let go.

Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men… all will play the Game of Thrones. It will stretch from the south, where heat breeds plot, lusts and intrigues to the vast and savage eastern lands all the way to the frozen north, where an 800-foot wall of ice protects the kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun. This stunning enhanced edition of the hugely popular and highly acclaimed epic fantasy features an interactive map tracking main characters’ journeys, audio extracts of key scenes and a hyperlinked character glossary.
