Customer reviews
"Nice!"
Had a lot of fun with this. Really recommend buying this. If you like the fantasy realm and being taken into another dimension then definitely buy this. It is truly a work of art. I have read it so many times now but still am not sick of it. Hope to see this series carry on strongly as I dearly enjoy it!
"Great"
Great book, well written, a great continuation of the series. Hard to put down, would advise any fan of High Fantasy to read the series of books.
Details
Description
Split into two books for the paperback, the third volume in George R.R. Martin's superb and highly acclaimed epic fantasy A Song of Ice and Fire continues the richest, most exotic and mesmerising saga since The Lord of the Rings. The Seven Kingdoms are divided by revolt and blood feud, and winter approaches like an angry beast. Beyond the Northern borders, wildlings leave their villages to gather in the ice and stone wasteland of the Frostfangs. From there, the renegade Brother Mance Rayder will lead them South towards the Wall. Robb Stark wears his new-forged crown in the Kingdom of the North, but his defences are ranged against attack from the South, the land of House Stark's enemies the Lannisters. His sisters are trapped there, dead or likely yet to die, at the whim of the Lannister boy-king Joffrey or his depraved mother Cersei, regent of the Iron Throne. And Daenerys Stormborn will return to the land of her birth to avenge the murder of her father, the last Dragon King on the Iron Throne.
‘Colossal, staggering… all the intoxicating complexity of the Wars of the Roses or Imperial Rome… one of the greats of fantasy literature.’ SFX ‘The sheer-mind-boggling scope of this epic has sent other fantasy writers away shaking their heads… Its ambition: to construct the Twelve Caesars of fantasy fiction, with characters so venomous they could eat the Borgias.’ Guardian

Blood and Gold follows directly from Steel and Snow, the first part of A Storm of Swords. Here, George R. R. Martin constructs the greatest battles and twists of the ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’ series. It is an absolute triumph, never letting up, with the final page of the book delivering a twist that will knock the wind out of any reader. In this reviewer's opinion, no fantasy novel will ever hold a candle to Blood and Gold, a testament to its unprecedented brilliance.
