The mega-bestseller A Game of Thrones now has a new format--the graphic novel. This is the second volume of the graphic adaptation, compiling issues 7-12 of the 24-issue comic run, which renowned comic publisher Dynamite will be producing in close conjunction with Random House.
In this graphic novel adaptation of a beloved fantasy classic, writer Daniel Abraham and illustrator Tommy Patterson deliver a stunning rendition that remains faithful to the original work. The story unfolds in King’s Landing, where Lord Eddard Stark, the Hand of King Robert Baratheon, finds himself surrounded by enemies—some openly hostile, like Ser Jaime Lannister and Queen Cersei, while others lurk in the shadows, disguised as friends. Eddard's conflict with the Lannisters is compounded by Tyrion Lannister, the Imp, who seeks revenge after being accused of attempting to murder Eddard's son, Brandon. Meanwhile, Jon Snow, Eddard's illegitimate son, has just joined the Night’s Watch, embarking on a path toward a destiny filled with unimaginable horrors. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen, married to the Dothraki warlord Khal Drogo and pregnant with a prophesied son destined to conquer the world, faces her own unexpected challenges. This adaptation captures the intricate political intrigue and character dynamics that define this epic tale, inviting readers into a richly detailed world of danger and ambition.
