Hvad foregik der egentlig i Westeros før KAMPEN OM TRONEN begyndte – før kulden kom tilbage, og før skumle kræfter begyndte at samle sig i den store iskolde vildmark på den anden side af Muren, der beskytter kongeriget? Det får vi svaret på i George R.R. Martins nye værk, Ild & Blod, der er den amerikanske forfatters historie om Targaryen-klanen i landet Westeros. Bogen handler om, hvordan magtforholdene faldt ud, som de gjorde i De Syv Kongerier. Om Valyrias storhed og fald, og hvordan den incestuøse Targaryen-slægt siden etablerede en ny æra. Med andre ord: Ild & Blod er en skatkiste af medrivende historier om krigene, konger, hustruer, børn, søskende, venner, rivaler – og drager selvfølgelig. Værket giver læserne et helt nyt blik på Westeros’ fascinerende historie. Den danske udgave af Ild & Blod udkommer samtidig med den engelske.
