Synopsis
"A Clash of Kings" 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. Set 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.
