Le royaume des Sept Couronnes est sur le point de connaître son plus terrible hiver : par-delà le Mur qui garde sa frontière nord, une armée de ténèbres se lève, menaçant de tout détruire sur son passage.Mais il en faut plus pour refroidir les ardeurs des rois, des reines, des chevaliers et des renégats qui se disputent le trône de fer.Tous les coups sont permis, et seuls les plus forts, ou les plus retors, s'en sortiront indemnes...

Le trône de fer : Intégrale vol.3

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.

 George R. R. Martin's 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, 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.

 The HBO adaption of A Game of Thrones has aired worldwide and proved so popular that a second season was commissioned.

Le trône de fer (A game of Thrones)

Bloat, le gouverneur du Rox, rêvait d'une terre promise. Il voulait faire d'Ellis Island un havre pour son peuple, un foyer pour tous les jokers. Il avait besoin des Permutants, ces parias capables de s'emparer d'un corps humain en un clin d'oeil. Il lui fallait leur argent pour nourrir le Rox. Leurs pouvoirs pour tenir à distance la vengeance d'un monde terrorisé. Mais sous les ordres du petit-fils psychopathe du Dr Tachyon, les Permutants sont devenus incontrôlables, et son rêve semblait s'éloigner toujours un peu plus...

A GAME OF THRONES: BOOK 1 - THE GRAPHIC NOVEL

Depuis qu'il a frappé la Terre il y a quarante ans, le virus Wild Card n'a cessé de se répandre, tuant une grande partie de la population, produisant quelques aces, des êtres aux pouvoirs surnaturels, et beaucoup de jokers, des humains amoindris et difformes. Aujourd'hui confrontés à un ennemi indicible venu des profondeurs de l'espace et à ses alliés sur Terre, une secte maçonnique, les héros créés par George R.R. Martin et ses comparses (Roger Zelazny, Walter Jon Williams, Pat Cadigan...) ne sont pas au bout de leurs surprises.

Les légendes parlent d'une race d'extraterrestres fabuleuse parcourant lentement l'espace, aux manettes de gigantesques vaisseaux à l'apparence de cités d'ombre. 

Moi, Karoly d'Branin, je leur ai voué ma vie, et mes inlassables recherches m'ont enfin permis de les localiser. Avec mon équipe, nous avons embarqué à bord de l'Armageddon, vaisseau du commandant Royd Eris. Et dans peu de temps, les volcryns seront enfin à notre portée. 

Mais en attendant, l'ambiance est de plus en plus pesante entre nous. Royd Eris refuse d'apparaître physiquement, préférant user d'hologrammes et de communicateurs muraux . Et Thale Lasamer, notre télépathe, fait état d'une menace sourde et mystérieuse. 

Peu importe ! Mes volcryns sont tout proches, et je ne les laisserai pas filer !

Quinze ans avant le mythique Trône de fer, George R.R. Martin, inlassable conteur multi-primé (Hugo, Locus et Nebula) publiait Le Volcryn. Ce court roman mêlant avec brio science-fiction, mystère et thriller remporte le prix Locus de la novella en 1981 avant d'être adapté au cinéma. Aujourd'hui de nouveau disponible, il ravira les amateurs de space opera et d'huis clos oppressants.

Le Volcryn

Presents the fourth installment of George R R Martin's classic "A Song of Ice and Fire." This work aims to bring to life the dark magic, intrigue, and terrible bloodshed, as the war-torn landscape of the Seven Kingdoms is threatened by destruction as vast as any in its violent past.
