内容简介
THE BOOK BEHIND THE SECOND SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES
AN ORIGINAL SERIES NOW ON HBO.
In this eagerly awaited sequel to A Game of Thrones, George R. R. Martin has created a work of unsurpassed vision, power, and imagination. A Clash of Kings transports us to a world of revelry and revenge, wizardry and warfare unlike any you have ever experienced.
A CLASH OF KINGS
A comet the color of blood and flame cuts across the sky. And from the ancient citadel of Dragonstone to the forbidding shores of Winterfell, chaos reigns. Six factions struggle for control of a divided land and the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms, preparing to stake their claims through tempest, turmoil, and war. It is a tale in which brother plots against brother and the dead rise to walk in the night. Here a princess masquerades as an orphan boy; a knight of the mind prepares a poison for a treacherous sorceress; and wild men descend from the Mountains of the Moon to ravage the countryside. Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, victory may go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel...and the coldest hearts. For when kings clash, the whole land trembles.

乔治·雷蒙德·理查德·马丁(Geoger Raymond Richard Martin)欧美奇幻小说大师。1948年9月20日出生于美国新泽西州的贝约恩,在伊利诺伊州伊凡斯顿的西北大学就读,主修新闻写作,1971年取得硕士学位。马丁的作品主要以人物为关注点,描写细腻丰富,突破了幻想文学界固有的创作模式,多次引领阅读潮流。代表作有十大浪漫太空歌剧之一的《光逝》、由雨果奖获奖名篇扩展而成的《风港》、在杂志读者群中深受爱戴的《图夫航行记》,以及当代正统奇幻的第一经典《冰与火之歌》等。由于马丁的辉煌成就,他被誉为美国的托尔金和新世纪的海明威。从1989年开始,马丁淡出文学界,转而投身演艺界发展,其中包括《美女与野兽》的编剧和The Twilight Zone的剧本编辑。1996年他才重返文坛而开始奇幻文学的创作,处女作便是《权力的游戏》(The Game Of Throne),即为《冰与火之歌》(The Song Of Fire And Ice)的首部曲。虽然封笔几近10年,但大师风范犹在,《权力的游戏》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻奖和星云奖年度最佳幻想作品提名,即使是由其中抽取章节编成的Blood of the Dragon也获得多个最佳中篇奖,在科幻奇幻界引起极大的反响。在非官方的不记名奇幻作品投票中,《冰与火之歌》俨然已经可以和《魔戒》平起平坐,作者网站的访问量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.罗琳等不相上下,其受欢迎的程度可见一斑。他的读者群早已是远远的超越奇幻科幻爱好者的范围,而受到更为广泛的关注。
权力的游戏已在HBO播出。乔治·马丁被时代杂志评选为2011年影响世界的一百人。
