A Clash of Kings

The battle for the Iron Throne has begun. With the deaths of King Robert Baratheon and Lord Eddard Stark, the fragile peace in Westeros shatters, and six contenders rise to claim the crown. From the storm-lashed shores of Dragonstone to the icy reaches of Winterfell, alliances are forged, betrayals abound, and war consumes the realm.

In a land where a princess hides as an orphan boy, sorcery lurks behind courtly masks, and the dead stir in the night, only the ruthless may survive. A Clash of Kings, the second book in George R.R. Martin’s epic saga, delivers a dark and thrilling tale of ambition, betrayal, and the high cost of power in a world where even the noblest hearts can turn to steel.
