In this third complete, George R.R. Martin continues to draw us into a fabulous world where the families of his heroes branch out into the heart of regions, each more mysterious than the next: caves, hollow hills, hamlets of leaves, impregnable fortresses. Here also enter the scene of terrifying monsters, slaves of evil forces who have only one goal on earth: to eradicate all traces of humanity. Odious mutilations, bloody dramas, forced marriages, shameless traitors, cruel revenge long matured, punitive measures, follow one another throughout these dazzling pages. Because nothing stops the abundant imagination of George R.R. Martin who continues one of the most original romantic and visionary cycles of all time.
