George R. R. Martin's fantasy masterpiece continues.  With her unborn son proclaimed "the stallion who mounts the world," Daenarys has more cause than ever to rejoice in her marriage to Khal Drogo. But when her brother, the mad Viserys, demands his promised crown, Dany's future takes an unexpected turn.

Meanwhile, in King's Landing, Robert Baratheon is mortally wounded while hunting. Robert decrees that Eddard Stark shall be Lord Regent until Prince Joffrey comes of age, but Eddard knows the boy is no son of the dying king's. Yet where in this serpent's nest of intrigue can he turn for help to secure the throne for the rightful heir? And in the frozen north, Jon Snow, newly promoted to the Black Watch, suffers a shock to his pride-and takes the next fateful step toward his destiny.

HARBINGER WARS tie-in! It's payback time! After Dr. Emanuel Kuretich freed Bloodshot from Project Rising Spirit, he promised Bloodshot that the answers to his identity would be found inside PRS' secret Nevada facility. He lied. Instead, Bloodshot discovered two dozen super-powered psiot children -- children that Kuretich then manipulated him into setting free. Now that the kids are out and have ignited a Harbinger War in the middle of the Vegas strip, Bloodshot is all that stands between them and the opposing forces of Toyo Harada and Peter Stanchek.  But Bloodshot hasn't forgotten about Kuretich. And he's about to reap his revenge.
