A Clash of Kings

Book • 1998
A Clash of Kings picks up where A Game of Thrones left off, with the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros in the midst of a bloody civil war.

Joffrey Lannister sits on the Iron Throne, but his claim is contested by Stannis and Renly Baratheon.

Meanwhile, Robb Stark has declared himself King in the North, and across the narrow sea, Daenerys Targaryen seeks to reclaim her birthright.

The novel follows multiple plotlines, including the Night's Watch's expedition beyond the Wall, Theon Greyjoy's betrayal of the Starks, and Tyrion Lannister's efforts to defend King's Landing against Stannis's army.

The book is known for its complex characters, intricate plotting, and the escalating conflicts that shape the world of Westeros.
