This book series is amazing, the only drawback is this set has very small print. I would recommend these books to any fan of fantasy or period drama. The television series is excellent as well. Overall, this set is a great deal.

I've read the series a few years back, bought the first four again to reread before starting on the fifth book.
Got all books from Mighty Ape by the way, great and fast service!
Great writing style of having a different character's point of view per chapter – you get to know them more as they develop, and even find yourself rooting for this or that character no matter how vile they are.
I'd consider this a must-read for fantasy fans, as it's a more mature take on the genre. Even non-fantasy fans are likely to enjoy the political intrigue and numerous plot twists!
Had watched the tv eps first and they are a direct take off from the books. You have to read them can picture every scene in your minds eye
George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire is the greatest fantasy epic of the modern age – this box set collects volumes 1–4 of the series into a collectable boxed set.
The A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE series has set the benchmark for contemporary epic fantasy. Labelled by Time magazine as one of the top 100 most influential people in the world, George RR Martin has conjured a world as complex and vibrant as that of J.R.R. Tolkien’s, populated by a huge cast of fascinating, complex characters, and boasting a history that stretches back twelve thousand years.
Three great storylines weave through the books, charting the civil war for control of the Seven Kingdoms; the defence of the towering Wall of ice in the uttermost north against the unearthly threat of the Others; and across the Narrow Sea the rise to power of Daenerys Targaryen and the last live dragons in the world.
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…
Includes volumes 1 to 4 of A Song of Ice and Fire:
A GAME OF THRONES
A CLASH OF KINGS
A STORM OF SWORDS
A FEAST FOR CROWS

Author Biography
George R.R. Martin sold his first story in 1971 and has been writing
professionally since then. He spent ten years in Hollywood as a writer-producer,
working on The Twilight Zone, Beauty and the Beast, and various feature films
and television pilots that were never made. In the mid '90s he returned to
prose, his first love, and began work on his epic fantasy series, A Song of Ice
and Fire. He has been in the Seven Kingdoms ever since. Whenever he's allowed
to leave, he returns to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he lives with the lovely
Parris, and two cats named Augustus and Caligula, who think they run
the place.
