A Clash of Kings: Graphic Novel, Volume Three

Description

George R.R. Martin's epic fantasy masterwork A Song of Ice and Fire is brought to life in the pages of this full-colour graphic novel. This is the third part of a four-volume adaptation of the second book in the series, A CLASH OF KINGS. New York Times bestselling author Landry Q. Walker and illustrator Mel Rubi continue to serve up a feast in this penultimate volume. In the south, Renly is dead at his brother's hand, but even as Stannis seeks a way to subdue Renly's hold of Storm's End, Tywin Lannister continues his march toward King's Landing, harried by the forces of Robb Stark and Edmure Tully. As Robb wins victory after victory, his sister Arya finds her own small way to turn the tides against the Lannister forces from her secret place inside Harrenhal - while back at Winterfell, their brother Bran is about to discover the true meaning of his prophetic dreams. Meanwhile, beyond the Wall, Jon Snow is chosen for a very special mission, and in sun-drenched Qarth, Daenerys Targaryen enters the House of the Undying. And so the pieces slowly shift into place, setting the stage for the explosive final volume as king at last clashes with king. This stunning graphic novel brings George R.R. Martin's landmark series to vivid life and is a must-read for any series fan.

'In the grand epic fantasy tradition, Martin is by far the best ... tense, surging, insomnia-inflicting' Time Magazine 'The sheer mind-boggling scope of this epic has sent other fantasy writers away shaking their heads ...Its ambition: to construct the Twelve Caesars of fantasy fiction, with characters so venomous they could eat the Borgias' Guardian 'Colossal, staggering ... Martin captures all the intoxicating complexity of the Wars of the Roses or Imperial Rome in his imaginary world ... The writing is always powerful ...' SFX
