If the past is prologue, then George R. R. Martinâs masterworkâthe most inventive and entertaining fantasy saga of our timeâwarrants one hell of an introduction. At long last, it has arrived with The World of Ice & Fire.
This lavishly illustrated volume is a comprehensive history of the Seven Kingdoms, providing vividly constructed accounts of the epic battles, bitter rivalries, and daring rebellions that lead to the events of A Song of Ice and Fire and HBOâs Game of Thrones. In a collaboration thatâs been years in the making, Martin has teamed with Elio M. GarcÃa, Jr., and Linda Antonsson, the founders of the renowned fan site Westeros.orgâperhaps the only people who know this world almost as well as its visionary creator.

Â
⢠full-color artwork and maps, with more than 170 original pieces
⢠full family trees for Houses Stark, Lannister, and Targaryen
⢠in-depth explorations of the history and culture of Westeros
⢠100% all-new material, more than half of which Martin wrote specifically for this book
The definitive companion piece to George R. R. Martinâs dazzlingly conceived universe, The World of Ice & Fire is indeed proof that the pen is mightier than a storm of swords.
