Summers span decades. Winter can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun.

As
Warden of the north, Lord Eddard Stark counts it a curse when King
Robert bestows on him the office of the Hand. His honour weighs him down
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, Stark’s family is split and there is treachery at court. Worse,
the vengeance-mad heir of the deposed Dragon King has grown to maturity
in exile in the Free Cities. He claims the Iron Throne.
