George R.R. Martin - Danza de Dragones

Serie Canción de Hielo y Fuego

05. Danza de Dragones (A Dance with Dragons)

Synopsis:

In the aftermath of a colossal battle, the future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance — beset by newly emerging threats from every direction. In the east, Daenerys Targaryen, the last scion of House Targaryen, rules with her three dragons as queen of a city built on dust and death. But Daenerys has thousands of enemies, and many have set out to find her. As they gather, one young man embarks upon his own quest for the queen, with an entirely different goal in mind.

Fleeing from Westeros with a price on his head, Tyrion Lannister, too, is making his way to Daenerys. But his newest allies in this quest are not the rag-tag band they seem, and at their heart lies one who could undo Daenerys's claim to Westeros forever.

Meanwhile, to the north lies the mammoth Wall of ice and stone — a structure only as strong as those guarding it. There, Jon Snow, 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, will face his greatest challenge. For he has powerful foes not only within the Watch but also beyond, in the land of the creatures of ice.

From all corners, bitter conflicts reignite, intimate betrayals are perpetrated, and a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves, will face seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Some will fail, others will grow in the strength of darkness. But in a time of rising restlessness, the tides of destiny and politics will lead inevitably to the greatest dance of all.

Sinopsis:

Daenerys Targaryen intenta mitigar el rastro de sangre y fuego que deja en las Ciudades Libres e intenta erradicar la esclavitud en Meereen. Mientras, un enano parricida, un príncipe de incógnito, un capitán implacable y un enigmático caballero acuden a la llamada de los dragones desde el otro lado del mar Angosto, ajenos al peligro que se cierne sobre el Norte, y que sólo las menguadas huestes de uno de los reyes en discordia y la Guardia de la Noche se aprestan a afrontar.

Synopsis:

With A Feast for Crows, Martin delivers the long-awaited fourth volume of the landmark series that has redefined imaginative fiction and stands as a modern masterpiece in the making.
After centuries of bitter strife, the seven powers dividing the land have beaten one another into an uneasy truce. But it's not long before the survivors, outlaws, renegades, and carrion eaters of the Seven Kingdoms gather. Now, as the human crows assemble over a banquet of ashes, daring new plots and dangerous new alliances are formed while surprising faces—some familiar, others only just appearing—emerge from an ominous twilight of past struggles and chaos to take up the challenges of the terrible times ahead. Nobles and commoners, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and sages, are coming together to stake their fortunes...and their lives. For at a feast for crows, many are the guests—but only a few are the survivors.

Los intrigantes miembros de la Casa Lannister intentan consolidar su hegemonía en Poniente; la flota de las Islas del Hierro se congrega para la elección de un rey que restituya la gloria perdida del Trono de Piedramar, y en Dorne, el único de los Siete Reinos que permanece apartado del conflicto, el asesinato de la princesa Elia y de los herederos Targaryen todavía se recuerda con dolor y rabia. Entre tanto, Brienne de Tarth parte en busca de Sansa Stark en cumplimiento de una promesa, y Samwell Tarly regresa de las tierras inhóspitas de más allá del Muro acompañado de una mujer y un niño de pecho.

Sinopsis:

Las huestes de los fugaces reyes de Poniente, descompuestas en hordas, asolan y esquilman una tierra castigada por la guerra e indefensa ante un invierno que se anuncia inusitadamente crudo.

Ajena a las intrigas palaciegas, e ignorante del auténtico peligro en ciernes, la Guardia de la Noche se ve desbordada por los salvajes. Y al otro lado del mundo, Daenerys Targaryen intenta reclutar en las Ciudades Libres un ejército con el que desembarcar en su tierra.

George R.R. Martin - Choque de Reyes

Serie Canción de Hielo y Fuego

02. Choque de Reyes (A Clash of Kings)

Synopsis:

Time is out of joint. The summer of peace and plenty, ten years long, is drawing to a close, and the harsh, chill winter approaches like an angry beast. Two great leaders—Lord Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon;who held sway over an age of enforced peace are dead...victims of royal treachery. Now, from the ancient citadel of Dragonstone to the forbidding shores of Winterfell, chaos reigns, as pretenders to the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms prepare to stake their claims through tempest, turmoil, and war. 

As a prophecy of doom cuts across the sky;a comet the color of blood and flame;six factions struggle for control of a divided land. Eddard;s son Robb has declared himself King in the North. In the south, Joffrey, the heir apparent, rules in name only, victim of the scheming courtiers who teem over King's Landing. Robert's two brothers each seek their own dominion, while a disfavored house turns once more to conquest. And a continent away, an exiled queen, the Mother of Dragons, risks everything to lead her precious brood across a hard hot desert to win back the crown that is rightfully hers. 

A Clash of Kings transports us into a magnificent, forgotten land of revelry and revenge, wizardry and wartime. It is a tale in which maidens cavort with madmen, brother plots against brother, and the dead rise to walk in the night. Here a princess masquerades as an orphan boy; a knight of the mind prepares a poison for a treacherous sorceress; and wild men descend from the Mountains of the Moon to ravage the countryside. 

Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, the price of glory may be measured in blood. And the spoils of victory may just go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel...and the coldest hearts. For when rulers clash, all of the land feels the tremors. 

Audacious, inventive, brilliantly imagined, A Clash of Kings is a novel of dazzling beauty and boundless enchantment;a tale of pure excitement you will never forget.

Sinopsis:

La novela río más espectacular jamás escrita
En un mundo cuyas estaciones pueden durar decenios y en el que retazos de una magia inmemorial y
olvidada surgen en los rincones más sombríos y maravillosos, la traición y la lealtad, la compasión y la sed
de venganza, el amor y el poder hacen del juego de tronos una poderosa trampa que atrapará en sus fauces a los personajes... y al lector.
Un cometa del color de la sangre hiende el cielo, cargado de malos augurios. Y hay razones sobradas para pensar así: los Siete Reinos se ven sacudidos por las luchas intestinas entre los nobles por la sucesión al Trono de Hierro. En la otra orilla del mar Angosto, la princesa Daenerys Targaryen conduce a su pueblo de jinetes salvajes a través del desierto. Y en los páramos helados del norte, más allá del Muro, un ejército implacable avanza hacia un territorio asolado por el caos y las guerras fratricidas.
