A Game of Thrones: The Graphic Novel: Volume One (Game of Thrones: The Graphic Novels Book 1)

By George R. R. Martin

A dazzling edition of the book that began the iconic A Song of Ice and Fire series, featuring 8 full-color illustrations and over 70 black-and-white illustrations—bringing the mystery, intrigue, romance, and adventure of the magnificent saga that inspired HBO’s A Game of Thrones to life as never before.

With a special foreword by John Hodgman

In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the North of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom’s protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens. Amid plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, the fate of the Starks, their allies, and their enemies hangs perilously in the balance, as each endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the game of thrones.

I finally finished this 800-pager! Phew!
What's that you say? There are FOUR MORE of these in the series???? O...M...G!!

This was a fun read in a genre I never thought I would like - fantasy. Why did I resist for so long? I'm looking forward to spending the rest of my life working my way through the series.

Thanks, Vivian!

Way to many feelings! I don't think I will ever get over Eddard Stark's death or Mycah's.

I snagged this only knowing that everyone liked the show. I didn't think Id care for it much, but I was wrong. I really enjoyed this and am looking forward to the second.
