A Feast for Crows


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 FEAST FOR CROWS is the fourth volume in the series. A Feast for Crows brings to life dark magic, intrigue and terrible bloodshed as the war-torn landscape of the Seven Kingdoms is threatened by destruction as vast as any in its violent past. The War of the Five Kings has ripped Westeros apart. The bloodthirsty, treacherous and cunning Lannisters occupy the Iron Throne, with allies as ruthless as themselves. Lord Frey was host at the Red Wedding, so called for the massacre of the guests, their screams unheard above the music of the feast. Euron Crow’s Eye is as black a pirate as ever raised a sail, sworn to deliver the whole of Westeros to the ironborn. No less to be feared are their enemies. The Starks of Winterfell and the Martells of Dorne seek vengeance for their dead. And the last of the Targaryens, Daenerys Stormborn, will bring fire and blood to King’s Landing when her young dragons reach their terrifying maturity. The last war fought with dragons was a cataclysm powerful enough to shatter the Valyrian peninsula, now a smoking, demon-haunted ruin half drowned by the sea. Against a backdrop of alchemy and murder, victory may go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel … and the coldest hearts.

Ming's last hope is Speaker, the slain emperor's twin and former imperial steward who is somehow bonded with the deity. A wannabe artist and writer, Speaker has been held hostage by the invaders for months, forced to recount the final days of the empire in the hopes that something in these details might give a clue as to the god's desires and motives.The Emperor's Twin is a haunting exploration of power, identity, and the terrifying intersections between the human body and the divine—the grotesque and the sublime—that questions the nature of control, survival, and the price of unrelenting ambition.

Ice


A Trans-Siberian odyssey through political, criminal, scientific, philosophical and amorous intrigues, and into an endless winter to confront something utterly alien.14th July 1924: In a Warsaw buried under feet of snow and Russian rule, Benedykt Gieroslawski, a dissolute young Polish mathematician, is roused from his bed by two officials from the Ministry of Winter and dispatched to Siberia, on the Trans-Siberian Express, to track down his long-exiled father.The catalyst for this frosty metamorphosis of 20th century history is the impact of the Tunguska asteroid, deep in Siberia, in 1908. From this Ground Zero, emerge the Gleissen, silent harbingers of an eternal winter that follows in their ponderous wake. As they spread across the continent, agriculture collapses and people flock to cities as they seek protection from the deadly cold. As the land freezes, so does history: the Tsar still rules Russia; the Belle Époque endures; and the First World War never happened.But out there, on the ice, a new world is being forged. The extreme, alien cold has transmuted elements into strange new forms, a ‘black physics’ that is the catalyst for a new industrial and scientific revolution. At the heart of it lies Siberia – a ‘Wild East’, a magnet for all the political, religious and scientific fevers shaking the world at the dawn of the 20th century, the crucible where black physics, shamanic lore and the cold logic of winter combine. And Benedykt’s final destination. Will he embrace the ice, or destroy it?

Shield of Sparrows - Pacsirták oltalma


Egykor az istenek szörnyekkel sújtották az öt királyságot, hogy emlékeztessék az embereket jelentéktelen mivoltukra. Nekem azonban nem volt szükségem az istenekre, hogy tisztában legyek saját jelentéktelenségemmel. Mellőzött hercegnőként egyetlen kötelességem volt: viselni a koronát és engedelmeskedni a királynak. Sosem szántak uralkodásra. Sosem szántak harcra. És sosem szántak annak a lánynak, aki a vérével pecsétel meg egy ősi szerződést. De minden megváltozott azon a sorsfordító napon, amikor apám tróntermébe léptem. Azon a napon, amikor egy legendás szörnyvadász ért partot nálunk. Azon a napon, amikor egy herceg tönkretette az életemet. Most veszéllyel és árulással teli földön járok egy harcos oldalán, ki épp annyira gyűlöl, amennyire én gyűlölöm őt, s egy mások által választott jövő és egy alig ismert férj felé tartok. Mindenki más szerepet szán nekem: királynő, kém, áldozat. De mi történik akkor, ha elutasítom a nekem szánt szerepeket? Mi történik akkor, ha saját szabályaim szerint élek? Mi történik akkor, ha kiderül, erő rejlik abban, ha alábecsülnek? És mi történik akkor, ha megragadom ezt az erőt?
