Publisher's Summary
HBO’s hit series A GAME OF THRONES is based on George R R Martin’s internationally bestselling series A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE, the greatest fantasy epic of the modern age. A DANCE WITH DRAGONS is the fifth volume in the series.
The future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance.
In the east, Daenerys, last scion of House Targaryen, her dragons grown to terrifying maturity, rules as queen of a city built on dust and death, beset by enemies.
Now that her whereabouts are known many are seeking Daenerys and her dragons. Among them the dwarf, Tyrion Lannister, who has escaped King’s Landing with a price on his head, wrongfully condemned to death for the murder of his nephew, King Joffrey. But not before killing his hated father, Lord Tywin.
To the north lies the great Wall of ice and stone – a structure only as strong as those guarding it. Eddard Stark's bastard son Jon Snow has been elected the 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, but he has enemies both in the Watch and beyond the Wall, where the wildling armies are massing for an assault.
On all sides bitter conflicts are reigniting, played out by a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves. The tides of destiny will inevitably lead to the greatest dance of all…
Editorial Reviews
A Dance with Dragons is part one of book five in this sweeping epic fantasy audiobook series A Song of Ice and Fire, written by George R. R. Martin and narrated by veteran British actor Roy Dotrice. Now the inspiration behind the major HBO TV series Game of Thrones. Queen Daenerys’ dragons have matured. They have been locked away and are simmering with unimaginable power. Her enemies have found out of their existence. The dragons are loyal to no one. The monstrous army gathering behind the wall of ice and stone continues to grow stronger. Available now from Audible.
Critic Reviews
"In the grand epic fantasy tradition, Martin is by far the best...tense, surging, insomnia-inflicting." (Time magazine)
"An absorbing, exciting read.... Martin's style is so vivid that you will be hooked within a few pages." (The Times)
"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)

Probably The Best Book of the Series
Incredible how the books are shaping up in comparison with the show (can't help compare, sorry). The plots are well-defined and the story seems to be moving along with finesse and complexity. Great book. Can't wait for the next!
Roy Dotrice is back to his best after a major dip in AFFC. Some inconsistencies are still there granted, but his performance is excellent overall. I wouldn't ask for anyone else in his stead.

Good book, stretches a bit.
The story seems to strech on in the beginning but by midway it picks up and doesn't let go, I hope winds of winter releases soon, the narrator did a good job but forgets which voice he used for which character and changed voice of tyrion and kevin Lannister, I liked the old voice very much.

Totally worth the time devoted to listening to it
Great book. Excellent content. Voice acting was far better and cleared than the previous ones.

One of the best epic fantasies ever
Loved every book to the end, hoping to get the next installments soon, a lot of cliffhangers left to close. Thanks George RR Martin and Roy Dotrice.

Great story. Unbearable narrator.
Great story. Unbearable narrator. Very unclear speech and head scratching choice of voice modulation for certain female characters.
