A boxed set featuring the first five novels is a perfect choice for fans of HBO’s Game of Thrones. George R. R. Martin's epic series, A Song of Ice and Fire, has captured the attention of millions of loyal readers worldwide and earned him the title of "the American Tolkien" by Time magazine. Now, you can embark on an immersive entertainment experience with the complete monumental cycle:
Los Angeles Times praises this series as one of the best in the history of fantasy. As the stern motto of House Stark warns, "Winter is coming." In the northernmost fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing, Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules on Robert's behalf. His family, including his proud wife Catelyn and their children Robb, Brandon, Rickon, Sansa, Arya, and his bastard son Jon Snow, live in peace and comfort.
However, lurking beyond the towering Wall in the far north are savage Wildings and other unnatural creatures, once believed to be mere myths during the centuries-long summer but now proven all too real and deadly with the turning of the season. As danger looms closer, a more immediate threat emerges to the south. Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. King Robert is now heading to Winterfell with his queen, the lovely yet cold Cersei, their cruel and vainglorious son Prince Joffrey, and Cersei's brothers Jaime and Tyrion, from the powerful and wealthy House Lannister. Jaime is an unparalleled swordsman, while Tyrion, a dwarf, possesses a brilliant mind. Their arrival in Winterfell will set off a fateful encounter that will shape the future of kingdoms.
Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, the heir of the fallen House Targaryen that once ruled Westeros, is plotting to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki. To secure their loyalty, he plans to offer his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys, as a bargaining chip.
The New York Times praises George Martin as a literary dervish, captivated by complex characters and vibrant language, bursting with the wild imagination of the greatest storytellers.
Immerse yourself in this gripping saga and witness the struggle for power, honor, and survival as the vivid world of Westeros unfolds before your eyes. Winter is coming, and you don't want to miss it.
