A Clash of Kings: The Illustrated Edition

George R. R. Martin

In this stunning edition of the second book in the beloved A Song of Ice and Fire series, artist Lauren K. Cannon brings the action to life with over twenty all-new illustrations, in both color and black-and-white--for fans of HBO's Game of Thrones

With a special foreword by Bernard Cornwell

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.
