› Find signed collectible books: 'A Clash of Kings'Book summary:How does he do it? George R.R. Martin's high fantasy weaves a spell sufficient to seduce even those who vowed never to start a doorstopper fantasy series again (the first book--A Game of Thrones--runs over 700 pages). A Clash of Kings is longer and even more grim, but Martin continues to provide compelling characters in a vividly real world.
The Seven Kingdoms have come apart. Joffrey, Queen Cersei's sadistic son, ascends the Iron Throne following the death of Robert Baratheon, the Usurper, who won it in battle. Queen Cersei's family, the Lannisters, fight to hold it for him. Both the dour Stannis and the charismatic Renly Baratheon, Robert's brothers, also seek the throne. Robb Stark, declared King in the North, battles to avenge his father's execution and retrieve his sister from Joffrey's court. Daenerys, the exiled last heir of the former ruling family, nurtures three dragons and seeks a way home. Meanwhile the Night's Watch, sworn to protect the realm from dangers north of the Wall, dwindle in numbers, even as barbarian forces gather and beings out of legend stalk the Haunted Forest.
Sound complicated? It is, but fine writing makes this a thoroughly satisfying stew of dark magic, complex political intrigue, and horrific bloodshed. --Nona Vero [via]

The Lannisters are in power on the Iron Throne.
The war in the Seven Kingdoms has burned itself out, but in its bitter aftermath new conflicts spark to life. The Martells of Dorne and the Starks of Winterfell seek vengeance for their dead. Euron Crows Eye, as black a pirate as ever raised a sail, returns from the smoking ruins of Valyria to claim the Iron Isles.
From the icy north, where Others threaten the Wall, apprentice Maester Samwell Tarly brings a mysterious babe in arms to the Citadel. As plots, intrigue and battle threaten to engulf Westeros, victory will go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel and the coldest hearts.

› Find signed collectible books: 'A Game of Thrones'Book summary:Dieser Titel ist in englischer Sprache.
In Band 1 seiner ersten Fantasy-Saga Das Lied von Eis und Feuer 1. Die Herren von Winterfell erzählt Martin in einer bunten Mischung aus Intrigen, geballter Handlung, romantischen Liebesgeschichten und geheimnisvollen Abenteuern das Leben der Herren von Winterfell. Die Existenz dieses Adelsgeschlechts ist von der durch die klimatischen Veränderungen hervorgerufenen Ausweitung der Jahreszeiten auf bis zu mehrere Jahrzehnte bedroht und hat durch seine menschlichen Perversionen nahezu jeglichen Zauber verloren.Besondere Raffinesse beweist Martin in diesem ersten Band durch eine ausgefeilte Erzähltechnik, eine großartige Handlung und eine gelungenen Integration seiner politischen Sichtweisen in den Handlungsstrang der Geschichte. Die vielen Charaktere und Perspektivenwechsel mögen auf den Leser zwar etwas abschreckend wirken, doch läßt sich dies in einem mehrbändigen Werk dieser Art wohl nur schwer vermeiden. Aus diesem Grund sollte dieses Werk wohl auch lieber von Anfang an gelesen werden. Sofern sich von diesem Anfang jedoch Rückschlüsse auf den Rest der Geschichte ziehen lassen, lohnt sich aufgrund seines hohen literarischen Wertes, seines Einfallsreichtums, seiner emotionalen Wirkung auf den Leser und der superben Schaffung neuer Welten auch die Gesamtlektüre dieses Werkes.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Hunter's Run'Book summary:A new benchmark in modern SF. A sharp, clever, funny morality tale that answers the biggest question of all: what makes us human? A fight in an alley behind a bar: a visiting European is knifed by local thug Ramon Espejo and all hell breaks loose. The dead man was a diplomat on an important mission to Sao Paulo, and next day Ramon is on the run heading north in his van toward land that no one has ever explored, or even thought of exploring, land so far only glimpsed from orbit during the first colony surveys. There are women still alive on Sao Paulo who can recall the initial descent onto an untouched world. All the cities of the south have bloomed since then, like mould on a Petri dish. Ramon was among the second wave of colonists. He's gone from being nothing in the hills of Mexico to being nothing on this strange alien world. His only friend Griego tells Ramon God meant him to be poor, or he wouldn't have made him so mean. Ramon's rage has never deserted him. It was there in the alley behind the bar, but he can't actually remember why he killed the European. Leaving all the hell and shit and sorrow of Diegotown behind, Ramon's plan is to look for minerals in the unmapped lands while the heat dies down. He's made a bare living prospecting so far, expecting each trip to be the big one that'll make him rich, and this one is no different. The first samples he blows out of the mountain, however, bring down the mountain upon him as well and a whole undiscovered alien race. Ramon is tethered to one of them and set to 'perform his function'. Whatever that means, he'll find out. And he'll remember why he killed the European. [via]
