Of the five contenders for power, one is dead, another in disfavour, and still the wars rage as violently as ever. Joffrey, of House Lannister, sits on the Iron Throne. His most bitter rival, Lord Stannis, stands defeated and disgraced. But young Robb, of House Stark, still rules the North. Robb plots against his despised Lannister enemies, even as they hold his sister hostage at King’s Landing. Meanwhile, making her way across a blood-drenched continent is the exiled queen, Daenerys, mistress of the only three dragons still left in the world. . .
But as opposing forces manoeuvre for the final titanic showdown, an army of barbaric wildlings arrives from the outermost line of civilization. In their vanguard is a horde of mythical Others: a supernatural army of the living dead. As the future of the land hangs in the balance, no one will rest until the Seven Kingdoms have exploded in a veritable storm of swords.
