About Game of Thrones: The Mad King

A long winter thaws in Harrenhal, and spring is promised. As a lavish banquet takes place on the eve of a jousting tournament, lovers meet and revellers speculate over who will contend. But beneath the celebrations, unease is growing.

The bloodthirsty actions of the realm’s merciless Mad King have driven dissenters from his inner circle to secretly advance a treasonous plot, while far away, the drums of battle begin to sound.

As the campaign for power unfolds, family bonds, ancient prophecies and the sacred line of succession will all be put to the test. Who will survive? And who will rise?

'Wars aren’t won by those with most cause, but whose story’s best told.'
