In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing.
The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister
and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom's protective Wall. At the
center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding
as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant
summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers
and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens.
Amid plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, the fate of
the Starks, their allies and their enemies hangs perilously in the balance, as each
endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the Game of Thrones.
