Martin, George R R - A Game of Thrones (Published in by The Folio Society in 2019. A Game of Thrones is presented in a spectacular collector's edition - the first release in the Folio Society series of George R. R. Martin's 'A Song of Ice and Fire'. A publishing phenomenon; the biggest TV series in the world; a book that revolutionised a genre. A Game of Thrones is also, above and beyond all these things, a uniquely addictive piece of literature, claiming legions of fans and winning vast critical acclaim, and now The Folio Society presents the ultimate illustrated collector's edition. Bound in three-quarter blocked cloth with a printed and blocked cloth front board. Set in Vendetta with Esmeralda as display. 824 pages in total over two volumes. 12 full page and 4 double-page colour illustrations. Printed in black & gold throughout. 8 illustrated chapter openers and 9 illustrated house sigils. 9 family trees in volume two. Fold-out map inserted in case, bound in blocked cloth. Printed endpapers. Coloured tops. Blocked and printed slipcase with printed illustration inside. 10" x 6.75". A story as epic as A Game of Thrones deserves an edition fit for the Iron Throne, and this lavish two-volume set drips with exquisite details. Award-winning illustrator Jonathan Burton has provided a series of gorgeous colour illustrations that take the reader deeper into the realms of Westeros than ever before. His work can also be seen in the stunning binding designs, the chapter heading illustrations, and even in a special image hidden on the inside of the unique slipcase. In an exclusive introduction, celebrated fantasy author Joe Abercrombie delves into how the book changed the landscape of the fantasy genre, while family trees – helping readers to keep their Lannisters separate from their Targaryens – have been designed at the end of the novel, alongside newly drawn House sigils. This spectacular set includes a new colour map of The Known World, folding out to reveal the full splendour of George R. R. Martin's remarkable creation. )
