Description
Centuries before A Game of Thrones, an even greater game began, one that set the skies alight with dragon flame and saw the Seven Kingdoms turned to ash.
So began the Targaryens' bloody rule, with fire and blood. Setting brother against brother, mother against daughter, and dragon against dragon.
Chronicled by a learned maester of the Citadel, this thrilling and bloody history of Westeros tells the story of where the battle for the Iron Throne began...
This edition, complete with gold foil design across the slipcase and cover board and stunning endpaper artwork, is the ultimate collection to add to your shelf.
The inspiration for HBO Original and Sky TV series HOUSE OF THE DRAGON from the internationally bestselling creator of GAME OF THRONES
