Step into the heart of the greatest fantasy epic of modern times, A Game of Thrones: The Story Continues by George R.R. Martin. This seven-book collection invites you to explore the world of Westeros, a land defined by political intrigue, legendary battles, and complex characters.

Set more than a hundred years after the events portrayed in HBO and Sky's House of the Dragon, the narrative picks up with the tumultuous struggle for the Iron Throne. The Seven Kingdoms are engulfed in civil war, noble families fight for power, and dark forces gather beyond the Wall in the North. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen begins her quest to reclaim the throne that was taken from her, armed with the last surviving dragons. Through fierce battles and deadly politics, each character's journey is riddled with ambition, betrayal, and alliances that shape the fate of Westeros.

Drawing comparisons to the intricate world-building and rich mythology of J.R.R. Tolkien, George R.R. Martin has crafted a universe teeming with history, passion, and an unparalleled depth of storytelling. The series is famous for its enormous cast of characters, each etched with detailed backstories and motivations that add layers of complexity to the unfolding saga.

A Song of Ice and Fire, the inspiration behind HBO and Sky's critically acclaimed series Game of Thrones, seamlessly weaves together three principal storylines. The battle for control of the Iron Throne is marked by shifting alliances and bloody conflicts. The icy Wall in the North stands as humanity's last defence against the unearthly threat posed by the Others. Meanwhile, Daenerys Targaryen's rise to power across the Narrow Sea hints at a transformative force aspiring to reclaim a lost dynasty.

This collection is a must-have for any fantasy aficionado, venturing deep into a narrative praised for its realism, moral ambiguity, and relentless pace. George R.R. Martin's meticulous attention to detail ensures that every page brims with tension, excitement, and the tantalising promise of unexpected twists.

The box-set includes:

* A Game of Thrones

* A Clash of Kings

* A Storm of Swords, 1: Steel and Snow

* A Storm of Swords, 2: Blood and Gold

* A Feast for Crows

* A Dance with Dragons, 1: Dreams and Dust

* A Dance with Dragons, 2: After the Feast

Whether you are a devoted fan or a newcomer to the series, this collection offers an immersive escape into one of the most celebrated tales ever told. Rediscover Westeros and experience the epic narrative that has captivated millions around the globe.
