Wiki History Listing


V1 A high fantasy novel series by American author George R.R. Martin, running since 1996 with five novels (out of a projected seven) as of 2012.

The saga revolves around three interconnected stories, set in a world where summer and winter can last decades: a seven-way war for the throne of Westeros, a looming threat of supernatural beings from beyond a massive wall of ice as a long winter approaches, and an exiled princess' quest to retake Westeros from the usurpers who killed her father.

The saga is unique among its genre for its impartial third-person point-of-view provided by dozens of characters of differing allegiances and personalities, as well as toning down the genre's more fantastic elements in favor of battles, political intrigue and moral ambiguity.
