A Storm of Swords, Part 2: Blood and Gold

The Seven Kingdoms are divided by revolt and blood feud, and winter approaches
like an angry beast. Beyond the Northern borders, wildlings leave their
villages to gather in the ice and stone wasteland of the Frostfangs. From
there, the renegade Brother Mance Rayder will lead them South towards the
Wall. Robb Stark wears his new-forged crown in the Kingdom of the North,
but his defences are ranged against attack from the South, the land of
House Stark's enemies the Lannisters. His sisters are trapped there, dead
or likely yet to die, at the whim of the Lannister boy-king Joffrey or
his depraved mother Cersei, regent of the Iron Throne. And Daenerys Stormborn
will return to the land of her birth to avenge the murder of her father,
the last Dragon King on the Iron Throne.
