Continuing the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of George
R.R. Martin's landmark series, this gorgeously illustrated special
edition of A Clash of Kings features over twenty all-new
illustrations from Lauren K. Cannon, both colour and
black-and-white, and a special foreword by Bernard Cornwell. The
Iron Throne once united the Sunset Lands, but King Robert is dead,
his widow is a traitor to his memory, and his surviving brothers
are set on a path of war amongst themselves. At King's Landing, the
head of Lord Eddard Stark rots on a spike for all to see. His
daughter Sansa is betrothed still to his killer's son Joffrey -
Queen Cersei's son, though not the son of her late husband Robert.
Even so, Joffrey is now a boy-king, Cersei is his regent, and war
is inevitable. In Dragonstone, Robert's brother Stannis has
declared himself king, while his other brother Renly proclaims
himself king at Storm's End - and Eddard Stark's fifteen year old
son Robb wears the crown of the north at Winterfell. A comet in the
night sky, red and malevolent, the colour of blood and flame, can
only be an omen of murder and war. Stannis's child Princess Shireen
dreams of dragons waking from stone. And a white raven has brought
word from the Citadel itself, foretelling summer's end. It has been
the longest summer in living memory, lasting ten years, and the
smallfolk say it means an even longer winter to come... The first
rule of war is never give the enemy his wish. But winter will be
the biggest enemy. From beyond the Wall the undead and Others
clamour for freedom, and from beyond the sea the long-dead Dragon
King's daughter hatches her revenge. Robb Stark will be exceedingly
lucky to reach adulthood.
