Twenty Twenty Eight is a fast paced adventure set against a background of political speculation, in the near future, when oil and energy resources are entirely depleted. The story focuses on the inter-action between the various characters and their enduring love for one another, when confronted by a totalitarian state in near collapse; a state that is being forced into surrender by subversive gangs taking over the cities. The action centres on a group of people who stockpile food, arms and ammunition in a disused lead mine in order to defend themselves against desperate, half-starved hoards pouring out of the cities. Eventually they realise their situation is becoming hopeless and decide to escape the horror altogether. Heading across country to a small schooner they sail away to what they believe will be a new Utopia. But what awaits them is something just as ominous. In this fast paced but wonderfully evocative novel David Greason Walker paints a strikingly vivid picture of how our world could be in the not too distant future. But he also applauds love, adventure and wide exotic landscapes, giving hope for the future however arduous life may become. The story also explores the part myth, part reality of our modern world; the spectacle of a life we are supposed to believe in, as opposed to the truth behind the spectacle!

Set 300 years before the events in A Song of Ice and Fire, Fire and Blood is the definitive history of the Targaryens in Westeros as told by Archmaester Gyldayn, and chronicles the conquest that united the Seven Kingdoms under Targaryen rule through the Dance of the Dragons: the Targaryen civil war that nearly ended their dynasty forever.

Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen – the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria – took up residence on Dragonstone. Fire and Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart.

What really happened during the Dance of the Dragons? Why did it become so deadly to visit Valyria after the Doom? What is the origin of Daenerys’s three dragon eggs? These are but a few of the questions answered in this essential chronicle, as related by a learned maester of the Citadel and featuring more than eighty all-new black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley. Readers have glimpsed small parts of this narrative in such volumes as The World of Ice & Fire but now, for the first time, the full tapestry of Targaryen history is revealed.

With all the scope and grandeur of Gibbon’s The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Fire and Blood is the ultimate game of thrones, giving readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros.
