Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Perfect for fans of A Song of Ice and Fire and HBO's Game of Thrones-- an epic history of Westeros and the lands beyond, featuring hundreds of pages of all-new material from George R. R. Martin If the past is prologue, then George R. R. Martin's masterwork--the most inventive and entertaining fantasy saga of our time--warrants 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 HBO's Game of Thrones . In a collaboration that's been years in the making, Martin has teamed with Elio M. Garc a, Jr., and Linda Antonsson, the founders of the renowned fan site Westeros.org--perhaps the only people who know this world almost as well as its visionary creator. Collected here is all the accumulated knowledge, scholarly speculation, and inherited folk tales of maesters and septons, maegi and singers, including - 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. Martin's dazzlingly conceived universe, The World of Ice & Fire is indeed proof that the pen is mightier than a storm of swords., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Perfect for fans of A Song of Ice and Fire and HBO's Game of Thrones-- an epic history of Westeros and the lands beyond, featuring hundreds of pages of all-new material from George R.

Arrived quickly and in very good condition. I am very happy with it and I think it was a great deal. It was almost half the price it would be if I bought it new.

Amazing illustrations
The book itself is amazing, the illustrations even more so and help the reader grasp the story. It covers a lot of history throughout Westros and the Free Cities; The slave Cities, etc. If you are a hard core GOT nerd, this is a must have. Only downside is it is written by a maester; which is kinda cool but also very one sided in some aspects. If you are a fan you know that the citadel don't condone magic, so some of the legends I think are closed over due to it being from a maesters view point. The start is a little slow, only because it covers new info that the show and books have only touched on so it is a lot of new info, but once you get to the mad king and that era you can relate better because you have heard the subject thru the show or books so it is AMAZING to get some history ...

Amazing lineage of most of the major houses and so much more. If you love Westros and want to know all about Martin's amazing world it is a must have!!

Fire & Ice Fandom, REJOICE!!
This is a BEAUTIFUL book!! Full of wonderful illustrations and fascinating details about the world created by George R. R. Martin in the Song of Ice and Fire series. I highly recommend this for any true fan or collector. The over-sized pages are crisp and beautiful, it's bound well and the front cover is beautifully embossed with the 3-headed dragon emblem. The art in the book is highly detailed. A LOT of it is in full color, and it has so much fascinating content, that my friend, who had never even watched the Game of Thrones series, or read any of the books from the series, now wants to devour it ALL after thumbing through this book. A WONDERFUL addition to my library! This is a BEAUTIFUL book!! Full of wonderful illustrations and fascinating details about the world created by George R. R.

Amazing absolute must have!
This is a must have for any game of thrones fan, asoiaf book fan, house of the dragon fan, or just a fan of westeros and all the lands in that world. It tells more stories and lore of the world, old history of house. Contains nice artwork. Even has a few family trees. An absolute must have for fans. The book itself is amazing quality. Its huge and of great quality. Its biggest than a phone book. The cover looks like an old journal from olden times like an old leathery worn down look. To pair with it I recommend the "lands of ice and fire". That one is a book sleeve that opens up to contain 12 maps of the asoiaf world. Map of KL and bravos. Westeros, essos, the whole known world. Essos broken into chunks. Just another must have for the fan collection. Just get them all lol WINTER IS ...

Buy it for yourself or the Game of Thrones addict in your life. You won't be sorry. It's a wonderful way to go deeper into the history and lore. And it can spur many a debate among the theorists dying for THE WINDS OF WINTER.
