The Seven Kingdoms have come apart. Joffrey, Queen Cersei's sadistic son, ascends the Iron Throne following the death of Robert Baratheon, the Usurper, who won it in battle. Queen Cersei's family, the Lannisters, fight to hold it for him. Both the dour Stannis and the charismatic Renly Baratheon, Robert's brothers, also seek the throne. Robb Stark, declared King in the North, battles to avenge his father's execution and retrieve his sister from Joffrey's court. Daenerys, the exiled last heir of the former ruling family, nurtures three dragons and seeks a way home. Meanwhile the Night's Watch, sworn to protect the realm from dangers north of the Wall, dwindle in numbers, even as barbarian forces gather and beings out of legend stalk the Haunted...

Long-awaited doesn't begin to describe this fourth installment in bestseller Martin's staggeringly epic Song of Ice and Fire. Speculation has run rampant since the previous entry, A Storm of Swords, appeared in 2000, and Feast teases at the important questions but offers few solid answers. As the book begins, Brienne of Tarth is looking for Lady Catelyn's daughters, Queen Cersei is losing her mind and Arya Stark is training with the Faceless Men of Braavos; all three wind up in cliffhangers that would do justice to any soap opera. Meanwhile, other familiar faces—notably Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister and Daenerys Targaryen—are glaringly absent though promised to return in book five. Martin's Web site explains that Feast and the forthcoming A Dance of Dragons were written as one book and...

Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom’s protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens. Here an enigmatic band of warriors bear swords of no human metal; a tribe of fierce wildlings carry men off into madness; a...

Of the five contenders for power, one is dead, another in disfavor, and still the wars rage as violently as ever, as alliances are made and broken. Joffrey, of House Lannister, sits on the Iron Throne, the uneasy ruler of the land of the Seven Kingdoms. His most bitter rival, Lord Stannis, stands defeated and disgraced, the victim of the jealous sorceress who holds him in her evil thrall. But young Robb, of House Stark, still rules the North from the fortress of Riverrun. Robb plots against his despised Lannister enemies, even as they hold his sister hostage at King’s Landing, the seat of the Iron Throne. Meanwhile, making her way across a blood-drenched continent is the exiled queen, Daenerys, mistress of the only three dragons still left in the world… But as opposing forces...

'A whisperjewel summoned him to Worlorn, and a love he thought he'd lost. But Worlorn isn't the world Dirk t'Larien imagined, and Gwen Delvano is no longer the woman he once knew. She is bound to another man, and to a dying planet that is trapped in twilight, forever falling toward night. Amid this bleak landscape is a violent clash of cultures in which there is no code of honor – and the hunter and the hunted are often interchangeable.' Caught up in a dangerous triangle, Gwen is in need of Dirk's protection, and he will do anything to keep her safe, even if it means challenging the barbaric man who has claimed her – and his cunning cohort. But an impenetrable veil of secrecy surrounds them all, and it's becoming impossible for Dirk to distinguish between his allies and his enemies....

Fiume Mississippi, 1857. Il ghiaccio di un gelido inverno ha appena distrutto la flotta commerciale del Capitano Abner Marsh. Privo di assicurazione, il vecchio armatore si ritrova solo, in bancarotta, disperato. Ma ecco che, inaspettatamente, un bizzarro straniero di nome Joshua York si offre di rilevare la meta della sua compagnia di navigazione in rovina, mettendo sul piatto una cifra spropositata. Ma non e tutto. York intende investire il proprio denaro nella costruzione del battello piu lussuoso, piu bello e soprattutto piu veloce che abbia mai solcato le torbide acque del Mississippi, e per di piu ne offre il comando al Capitano Marsh. L’unica condizione posta da York e semplice: gli ordini da lui impartiti saranno pochi, ma per quanto strani o assurdi possano sembrare, ogni qual...

Haviland Tuf un negutator interstelar cinstit, dar de mica anvergura. El gaseste, din intamplare, o nava de germinare, veche de secole si lunga de cateva mile, care apartinuse Corpului Pamantean al Inginerilor Ecologici, o organizatie candva foarte puternica. Pe nava — folosita initial ca arma ucigatoare — sunt pastrate secretele unei stiinte uitate intre timp, iar instalatiile sale functioneaza suficient de bine pentru a crea, modifica genetic sau clona orice planta sau animal dintr-un fond de miliarde de specii, unele binefacatoare, altele distructive. Execentricul, dar moralul Tuf se transforma in inginer ecologic si foloseste comorile navei sale pentru a rezolva problemele ce chinuie coloniile omenesti indepartate — de la foamete la serpi de...

For many of us, the Ace Double Novels of the ’50s and ’60s have long been a source both of pleasure and nostalgia. This new double volume from Subterranean Press stands squarely in that distinguished tradition, offering a pair of colorful, fast-paced novelettes from one of the most popular writers currently working in any genre: George R. R. Martin. Starlady takes place on a planet called Thisrock and depicts a Darwinian society populated by thieves, whores, cutthroats, pimps, and assorted lost souls. It is a tale of love, loss, vengeance, and ambition written with great economy of means, and with a narrative intensity that never, ever lets up. Fast-Friend takes a fresh new look at an enduring human dream: travel to the stars. With consummate narrative skill, and with a...
