A Clash of Kings (HBO Tie-in Edition) continues the sweeping fantasy saga begun in A Game of Thrones. Set in the divided Seven Kingdoms of Westeros, this second volume in A Song of Ice and Fire plunges readers deeper into a realm torn apart by rival claims to the Iron Throne.
A blood-red comet blazes across the sky as six contending powers maneuver for dominance. From the fire-lit halls of Dragonstone to the stark fastness of Winterfell, alliances shift and betrayal is never far away. Brothers turn against each other, the dead stir in the darkness, and civil war spreads across the land.
Disguises, secret plots, and dangerous magic drive the story forward. A princess hides in plain sight as an orphan boy, a brilliant but underestimated strategist prepares a lethal surprise for a sorceress, and wild warriors sweep down from the mountains, leaving devastation in their wake. Amid alchemy, murder, and forbidden relationships, victory belongs to those ruthless enough to seize it.
This HBO tie-in edition connects directly to the second season of the acclaimed television series, offering a richer, more intricate view of the characters, factions, and conflicts that shape the struggle for power in Westeros.
