Au nord du Mur colossal qui protégeait le royaume, se massèrent soudain des forces obscures. Au sud, l'ordre établi chancela. Le meurtre et la corruption, la lâcheté et le mensonge enserrèrent inexorablement le trône convoité...

Um eine fantastische Welt lebendig erscheinen zu lassen, benötigt sie eine Vergangenheit. Daher erschuf Bestsellerautor George R. R. Martin den fiktiven Kontinent Westeros, auf dem sein Meisterwerk "Das Lied von Eis und Feuer - Game of Thrones" spielt, in jahrelanger Detailarbeit. Das Hörbuch präsentiert erstmals die Geschichte von Westeros - beginnend in der Zeit, in der die ersten Menschen den Kontinent betraten, über die Ankunft von Aegon dem Eroberer und seinen Drachen bis zu Robert Baratheons Rebellion gegen den wahnsinnigen König Aerys II. Targaryen.

But the Shadow King has been plotting against Theseus, and risks everything for the revenge of his people who have been banished to the dark side of Titan. Comedy soon turns to misfortune, as the main characters must trade their convictions for sacrifice.

This thought-provoking anthology offers a close examination of the psychology behind the intricate narrative and compelling characters in author George R.R.

How do love and hate, good and evil, need and greed, altruism and narcissism drive the very best and very worst human behaviors?

When Edward IV, King of England, died suddenly after a fishing trip in April 1483, another phase of the Wars of the Roses ensued, the Yorks (Starks) battling the Lancasters (Lannisters). Thwarted Queen is told mainly in the voice of Lady Cecylee Neville (1415-1495), the thwarted queen, but other voices are important to this tale, not least those of the Londoners, who forged their own political destiny by engaging in public debate with the powerful aristocrats of the time
