About this ebook

HBO’s hit series A GAME OF THRONES is based on George R. R. Martin’s internationally bestselling series A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE, the greatest fantasy epic of the modern age. A DANCE WITH DRAGONS is the fifth volume in the series.

The future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance.

In the east, Daenerys, last scion of House Targaryen, her dragons grown to terrifying maturity, rules as queen of a city built on dust and death, beset by enemies.

Now that her whereabouts are known many are seeking Daenerys and her dragons. Among them the dwarf, Tyrion Lannister, who has escaped King’s Landing with a price on his head, wrongfully condemned to death for the murder of his nephew, King Joffrey. But not before killing his hated father, Lord Tywin.

To the north lies the great Wall of ice and stone – a structure only as strong as those guarding it. Eddard Stark's bastard son Jon Snow has been elected the 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, but he has enemies both in the Watch and beyond the Wall, where the wildling armies are massing for an assault.

On all sides bitter conflicts are reigniting, played out by a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves. The tides of destiny will inevitably lead to the greatest dance of all...

The title say's it all. The book (in fact the whole series) is AMAZING. A really rich world full of detailed stories, fantastic characters, unexpected plot twists, everything to keep an avid fan busy for a LONG time! I would easily have given it five stars except for the price! For fecks sake! £11.99 FOR AN EBOOK! Search Amazon for "A Dance With Dragons" - top hit - buy NEW for £3.85 with FREE super saver delivery! The sooner people wake up and realise WHAT A RIP OFF ebooks are at current prices the better!

Books 1 & 2 were fantastic but then as the world "split in two" and we were reading about a set of characters in 3 and a different set in 4 the story really slowed up and you spent the whole time wondering about your favourite characters in the other book whilst being introduced to new pointless characters. This book brings the whole world back together and enhances, shocks and enthralls on the ground work previously done. The best book since the second IMO. Can't wait for the next.

The first few books in the series were great but this one is like a filler! The amount of story could have been fitted into 50 pages rather than 1000!! A lot of useless details in this book :(
