Dubbed .the American Tolkien. by Time magazine, George R. R. Martin has earned
international acclaim for his monumental cycle of epic fantasy. Now the #1
New York Times bestselling author delivers the fifth book in his spellbinding
landmark series--as both familiar faces and surprising new forces vie for
a foothold in a fragmented empire.

In the aftermath of a colossal battle, the future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs
in the balance once again--beset by newly emerging threats from every direction.
In the east, Daenerys Targaryen, the last scion of House Targaryen, rules with
her three dragons as queen of a city built on dust and death. But Daenerys has
three times three thousand enemies, and many have set out to find her. Yet, as
they gather, one young man embarks upon his own quest for the queen, with an
entirely different goal in mind.

To the north lies the mammoth Wall of ice and stone--a structure only as strong
as those guarding it. There, Jon Snow, 998th Lord Commander of the Night.s Watch,
will face his greatest challenge yet. For he has powerful foes not only within
the Watch but also beyond, in the land of the creatures of ice.

And from all corners, bitter conflicts soon reignite, intimate betrayals are
perpetrated, and a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers,
nobles and slaves, will face seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Some will fail,
others will grow in the strength of darkness. But in a time of rising
restlessness, the tides of destiny and politics will lead inevitably to the
greatest dance of all...
