Description
This English-language fantasy novel is the first volume in George R R Martin’s internationally bestselling A Song of Ice and Fire series, the epic on which HBO’s hit series Game of Thrones is based. Summers span decades, while winter can last a lifetime, and the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun. As Warden of the North, Lord Eddard Stark regards it as a curse when King Robert appoints him Hand of the King. His honour weighs on him at court, where a true man does what he will, not what he must, and a dead enemy is a thing of beauty. The old gods have no power in the south, the Stark family is divided, and treachery is spreading at court. Worse, the vengeance-mad heir of the deposed Dragon King has reached adulthood in exile in the Free Cities and claims the Iron Throne.
