Now the acclaimed HBO series Game of Thrones - the masterpiece that became a cultural phenomenon Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen's brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister - the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki - whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys.

A comet the color of blood and flame cuts across the sky. And from the ancient citadel of Dragonstone to the forbidding shores of Winterfell, chaos reigns. Six factions struggle for control of a divided land and the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms, preparing to stake their claims through tempest, turmoil, and war. It is a tale in which brother plots against brother and the dead rise to walk in the night. Here a princess masquerades as an orphan boy; a knight of the mind prepares a poison for a treacherous sorceress; and wild men descend from the Mountains of the Moon to ravage the countryside. Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, victory may go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel...and the coldest hearts. For when kings clash, the whole land trembles.

Of the five contenders for power, one is dead, another in disfavor, and still the wars rage as violently as ever, as alliances are made and broken. Joffrey, of House Lannister, sits on the Iron Throne, the uneasy ruler of the land of the Seven Kingdoms. His most bitter rival, Lord Stannis, stands defeated and disgraced, the victim of the jealous sorceress who holds him in her evil thrall. But young Robb, of House Stark, still rules the North from the fortress of Riverrun. Robb plots against his despised Lannister enemies, even as they hold his sister hostage at King's Landing, the seat of the Iron Throne. Meanwhile, making her way across a blood-drenched continent is the exiled queen, Daenerys, mistress of the only three dragons still left in the world.... But as opposing forces maneuver for the final titanic showdown, an army of barbaric wildlings arrives from the outermost line of civilization. In their vanguard is a horde of mythical Others, a supernatural army of the living dead whose animated corpses are unstoppable. As the future of the land hangs in the balance, no one will rest until the Seven Kingdoms have exploded in a veritable storm of swords....

GAME OF THRONES: A NEW ORIGINAL SERIES, NOW ON HBO. Few books have captivated the imagination and won the devotion and praise of readers and critics everywhere as has George R. R. Martin’s monumental epic cycle of high fantasy that began with A Game of Thrones. Now, in A Feast for Crows, Martin delivers the long-awaited fourth book of his landmark series, as a kingdom torn asunder finds itself at last on the brink of peace . . . only to be launched on an even more terrifying course of destruction. A Feast for Crows It seems too good to be true. After centuries of bitter strife and fatal treachery, the seven powers dividing the land have decimated one another into an uneasy truce. Or so it appears. . . . With the death of the monstrous King Joffrey, Cersei is ruling as regent in King’s Landing. Robb Stark’s demise has broken the back of the Northern rebels, and his siblings are scattered throughout the kingdom like seeds on barren soil. Few legitimate claims to the once desperately sought Iron Throne still exist—or they are held in hands too weak or too distant to wield them effectively. The war, which raged out of control for so long, has burned itself out. But as in the aftermath of any climactic struggle, it is not long before the survivors, outlaws, renegades, and carrion eaters start to gather, picking over the bones of the dead and fighting for the spoils of the soon-to-be dead. Now in the Seven Kingdoms, as the human crows assemble over a banquet of ashes, daring new plots and dangerous new alliances are formed, while surprising faces—some familiar, others only just appearing—are seen emerging from an ominous twilight of past struggles and chaos to take up the challenges ahead.

Dubbed the American Tolkien by Time magazine, George R. R. Martin has earned international acclaim for his monumental cycle of epic fantasy. Now the number-one New York Times best-selling 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 3,000 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 Nights 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.

The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to life in this masterly work by the author of A Song of Ice and Fire, the inspiration for HBO's Game of Thrones. With all the fire and fury fans have come to expect from internationally best-selling author George R. R. Martin, this is the first volume of the definitive two-part history of the Targaryens in Westeros. 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 & 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 was it so deadly to visit Valyria after the Doom? What were Maegor the Cruel’s worst crimes? What was it like in Westeros when dragons ruled the skies? 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 80 all-new black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley. Listeners 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 & Blood is the ultimate game of thrones, giving listeners a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Taking place nearly a century before the events of A Game of Thrones, 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. These never-before-collected adventures recount an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living consciousness. Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne, there were Dunk and Egg. A young, naïve, but ultimately courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his rivals - in stature if not experience. Tagging along is his diminutive squire, a boy called Egg - whose true name (hidden from all he and Dunk encounter) is Aegon Targaryen. Though more improbable heroes may not be found in all of Westeros, great destinies lie ahead for these two...as do powerful foes, royal intrigue, and outrageous exploits. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a must-have collection that proves chivalry isn't dead - yet.

Comment Lord Eddard Stark, seigneur de Winterfell, Main du Roi, gravement blessé par traîtrise, et par là même plus que jamais à la merci de la perfidie de la reine Cersei ou des imprévisibles caprices du despotique Roi Robert, aurait-il une chance d'échapper à la nasse tissée dans l'ombre pour l'abattre ? Comment, armé de sa seule et inébranlable loyauté, cerné de toutes parts par d'abominables intrigues, pourrait-il à la fois survivre, sauvegarder les siens et assurer la pérennité du royaume ? Comment ne serait-il pas voué à être finalement broyé dans un engrenage infernal, alors que Catelyn, son épouse, a mis le feu aux poudres en s'emparant du diabolique nain Tyrion, le frère de la reine ? Bernard Métraux prête sa voix multiforme à une pléiade de personnages qui tissent à travers leurs forces, leurs faiblesses, leurs accès de fureur et de folie, l'histoire du Royaume et de ses intrigues imprévisibles.

Bien que faits et signes ne cessent de confirmer la devise de Winterfell, "l'hiver vient", le royaume des Sept Couronnes affecte toujours d'ignorer la fin de l'été pour se consacrer plus commodément à ses querelles, vindictes, ambitions. Pendant que Rob Stark poursuit ses campagnes sanglantes dans l'ouest, que Port-Réal vit dans la hantise du siège imminent, que la guerre se répand jusqu'à Winterfell grâce aux menées des Greyjoy, eux-mêmes divisés, s'amoncellent au-delà du Mur des forces obscures et malfaisantes. Mais contrairement aux apparences, Bran, le jeune fils du défunt maître de Winterfell, n'est pas mort, pas plus que n'est anéantie l'indomptable forteresse, prête à renaître de ses cendres...

Les têtes de nains tranchées ont beau s'accumuler sur le parvis de Castral-Roc, celle de Tyrion, meurtrier présumé de Tywin Lannister, son père, semble toujours solidement juchée sur ses deux épaules. Sa sœur Cersei, désormais régente, ne sait plus qui elle doit haïr le plus : lui ou la petite reine, Margaery, intrigante de basse-cour qui est parvenue à lui ravir le cœur du futur roi, son fils. Ses manœuvres ont beau être cousues de fil blanc, son joli minois et ses nombreux alliés font d'elle une rivale avec qui il faut compter. Pour autant, Cersei a encore quelques vilains tours dans son sac : ce n'est pas aux vieilles lionnes que l'on apprend à mordre... >> Ce livre audio en version intégrale vous est proposé en exclusivité par Audible et est uniquement disponible en téléchargement.

La maison Greyjoy tremble sur ses fondations depuis la mort on ne peut moins naturelle de son dirigeant, Balon, roi auto-proclamé des îles de Fer. Les prétendants à sa succession sont nombreux, mais la parole du dieu Noyé, relayée par la voix du prophète Aeron Tifs-Trempes, s’est élevée sans équivoque : il faut tenir des états généraux de la royauté en présence de tous les vassaux. Cependant, tous gardent à l’esprit que les derniers en date, quelque deux mille ans plus tôt, se sont terminés dans un bain de sang. Et la maison Lannister n’en a que trop senti l’odeur ces derniers temps. Alors que Tyrion croupit au fond de son cachot pour un meurtre qu’il n’a pas commis, on retrouve Tywin assassiné dans sa propre chambre. Quant à Brienne, la Pucelle de Torth, elle arpente les routes à la recherche de Sansa Stark, routes où foisonnent parfois de bien étranges rencontres... >> Ce livre audio en version intégrale vous est proposé en exclusivité par Audible et est uniquement disponible en téléchargement.

Daenerys a eu beau se plier à toutes les exigences du peuple de Meereen, rien n'y fait : la paix précaire risque à tout moment de dégénérer en un siège sanglant. D'autant plus que la jument pâle, cette peste incurable, continue de faire des ravages aux portes de la ville. Yezzan zo Qaggaz, le maître de Tyrion, figure parmi les dernières victimes en date. Le malheur des uns faisant le bonheur des autres, le nain y voit une occasion unique de prendre la poudre d'escampette. Pendant ce temps, au Nord, les portes de Winterfell demeurent obstinément closes, tandis que la forteresse disparaît peu à peu sous un épais manteau de neige. Ses remparts servent-ils à protéger ses occupants de l'assaut de moins en moins probable des troupes de Stannis Baratheon, ou à sceller leur tombeau ?

"Au septième jour, une nuée de corbeaux jaillit des tours de Peyredragon pour propager la parole de lord Aegon aux Sept Couronnes de Westeros. Ils volaient vers les sept rois, vers la Citadelle de Villevieille, vers les seigneurs tant petits que grands. Tous apportaient le même message : à compter de ce jour, il n'y aurait plus à Westeros qu'un roi unique. Ceux qui ploieraient le genou devant Aegon de la maison Targaryen conserveraient terres et titres. Ceux qui prendraient les armes contre lui seraient jetés à bas, humiliés et anéantis."
Trois cents ans avant les événements du Trône de Fer, Feu et sang raconte l'unification des sept royaumes.
