renegades, liars, lords, and honest men. All will play the Game of Thrones. Summers
span decades. Winter can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne
has begun. It will stretch from the south, where heat breeds plot, lusts, and
intrigues; to the vast and savage eastern lands; all the way to the frozen
north, where an 800-foot wall of ice protects the kingdom from the dark forces
that lie beyond. The Game of Thrones. You win, or you die.</span></strong></p>
