A Clash of Kings



Book menu for A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin

ISBN of edition I read:  9780553108033 (hardcover)

This is book two in the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series.  I cannot wait to delve into book three!  I also just finished watching season two of the HBO series (very good, but many plot differences from the book). Martin is a master storyteller.
