A Dance with Dragons is the 5th book in the A Song of Ice and Fire Series.
But in a time of rising restlessness, the tides of destiny and politics will lead inevitably to the greatest Dance of all..
Some will fail, others will grow in the strength of darkness.
From all corners, bitter conflicts reignite, intimate betrayals are perpetrated, and a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves, will face seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
For he has powerful foes not only within the Watch but also beyond, in the land of the creatures of ice.
There, Jon Snow, 998th Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch, will face his greatest challenge.
Meanwhile, to the north lies the mammoth Wall of ice and stone - a structure only as strong as those guarding it.
But his newest allies in this quest are not the rag-tag band they seem, and at their heart lies one who could undo Daenerys’s claim to Westeros forever.
Fleeing from Westeros with a price on his head, Tyrion Lannister, too, is making his way to Daenerys.
As they gather, one young man embarks upon his own quest for the queen, with an entirely different goal in mind.
But Daenerys has thousands of enemies, and many have set out to find her.
In the east, Daenerys Targaryen, the last scion of House Targaryen, rules with her three dragons as queen of a city built on dust and death.
In the aftermath of a colossal battle, the future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance - beset by newly emerging threats from every direction.
