HTML: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 innoc… (altro)
majkia: Both feature war-torn landscapes, confusing and conflicting motivations for main characters, and focus on complex characters whose loyalties are strained and oftentimes change.
saturnine13: If you like gritty, faux historical fiction, how about another with an asian flavor? Shogun, like A Game of Thrones, concerns the byzantine political intrigues of a multitude of different characters painted in moral shades of grey, generously heaped with gruesome action and heart-breaking romance. While Shogun lacks dragons, it does have the added interest of being mostly based upon real events and people.… (altro)
There's honestly nothing I can think of that could improve it in any way. This is a book that made me shout at it, that made me giggle and cry, that made me gasp, that made me tremble and hate and love. It's seamless; I'd say it's unputdownable, except that sometimes I found I desperately needed to put it down because I was overwhelmed with the wonder of it, only to pick it up again half an hour later.
“Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armour yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.”

The other two pulled away from her breasts and added their voices to the call, translucent wings unfolding and stirring the air, and for the first time in hundreds of years, the night came alive with the music of dragons.

Descrizione del libro
In una terra fuori dal mondo, dove le estati e gli inverni possono durare intere generazioni, sta per esplodere un immane conflitto. Sul Trono di Spade, nel Sud caldo e opulento, siede Robert Baratheon. L'ha conquistato dopo una guerra sanguinosa, togliendolo all'ultimo, folle re della dinastia Targaryen, i signori dei draghi. Ma il suo potere è ora minacciato: all'estremo Nord, la Barriera - una muraglia eretta per difendere il regno da animali primordiali e, soprattutto, dagli Estranei - sembra vacillare. Si dice che gli Estranei siano scomparsi da secoli. Ma se è vero, chi sono allora quegli esseri con gli occhi così innaturalmente azzurri e gelidi, nascosti tra le ombre delle foreste, che rubano la vita, o il senno, a chi ha la mala sorte di incontrarli? La fine della lunga estate è vicina, l'inverno sta arrivando e non durerà poco: solo un nuovo prodigio potrà squarciare le tenebre. Intrighi e rivalità, guerre e omicidi, amori e tradimenti, presagi e magie si intrecciano nel primo volume della saga de "Le Cronache del Ghiaccio e del Fuoco", definita da Marion Zimmer Bradley "la più bella epopea che io abbia mai letto".
