before A Game of Thrones, an even greater game began, one that set

turned to ash. The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to

George R.R. Martin's epic fantasy masterwork A Song of Ice and Fire
is brought to life in the pages of this full-colour graphic novel.
This is the second part of a four-volume adaptation of the second
book in the series, A Clash of Kings. As chaos grips Westeros, a
flaming red comet continues to burn a crimson path across the sky.
Some see this fiery herald as a sign of their impending victory.
Others see it as a mark of the blood and terror that will soon
engulf this divided kingdom. But one thing is certain: None of the
six contenders who seek either the Iron Throne, or the lands their
ancestors once held as kings, are willing to back down. And as
factions scatter or come together, there are many witnesses to the
unrest that is to come. Arya Stark finds herself in the heart of
enemy territory at Harrenhal, while her mother is trapped between
two brothers battling each other for their dead brother's throne.
In the heart of King's Landing, Tyrion is busy ferreting out
traitors as the Hand of the King, while Jon is beginning to
comprehend the lawlessness of life beyond the Wall. New friends
arrive in Winterfell for Bran, a forgotten son finds life in the
Iron Islands quite different than he remembered, and the Mother of
Dragons at last arrives in the fabled city of Qarth. But even as
these would-be kings draw their lines of battle, it is the people
of Westeros who will most suffer for their ambitions. For when
kings clash, it is the commoners who bear the greatest cost.
A century before A GAME OF THRONES, two unlikely heroes wandered
Westeros… A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS compiles the first three
official prequel novellas to George R.R. Martin’s ongoing
masterwork, A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE. Before Tyrion Lannister and
Podrick Payne there was Dunk and Egg. A young, naïve but
courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his
rivals – in stature if not experience. Tagging along with him is
his diminutive squire, a boy called Egg – whose true identity
must be hidden from all he and Dunk encounter: for in reality he is
Aegon Targaryen, and one day he will be king. Improbable heroes
though they be, great destinies lie ahead for Dunk and Egg; as do
powerful foes, royal intrigue, and outrageous exploits. Set in an
age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the
memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory,
and featuring more than 160 illustrations by Gary Gianni, one of
the finest fantasy artists of our time, this beautiful volume will
transport readers to the world of the Seven Kingdoms in an age of
bygone chivalry.

alike. Inside, visitors are governed by intergalactic treaty.
Outside, the streets belong to Chicago's finest. Charlie Baker,

eager to put to practical use his enthusiasm for all things

married to the job, which often puts her in conflict with Lyhanne
Nhar-Lys, security champion of Starport and one of the galaxy's
fiercest warriors. Undercover with a gang of anti-alien extremists,
Detective Aaron Stein has no problem mixing business with pleasure
- until he stumbles upon evidence of a plot to assassinate a
controversial trade envoy with a cache of stolen ray guns. Now the
Chicago PD must stop these nutjobs before they piss off the entire
universe. Based on a TV pilot script written by George R.R. Martin
