Livros As crônicas de gelo e fogo (A Song of Ice and Fire)
The first volume of the series, entitled A game of thrones (not that I inspired or title of the series of televisão), was written in 1991, but has been published some in 1996 by Bantam Books on its own. Bantam Spectra.
No Brazil, edição ficou in charge of the editor Leya, the exemplary chegaram as lojas no year 2010.
The initial idea of the author was that you should be free to form a trilogy. Little time depois, Martin realized that he would need more space to unfold his story and decided that he would collect four books together. Pouco tempo depois esse passou number for five and, for sim, ficou resolved that the history would be composed by seven volumes.
The central plot revolves around a battle between the Seven Kingdoms. There is a dispute of some families powerful hair Throne of Iron, at the end that it reaches or Throne of Ferro will ensure the survival of rigorous winter hair that promises to be close and will last 40 years. The main families present in the dispute are Targaryens, Starks and Lanisters.
The phrase "The winter is coming" (in Portuguese "O inverno is chegando.") Relembraes or leitor dessa ameaça each time more closely.
O cenário is an imaginary land of Westeros, an immense land located in Europe, during the medieval period. The people are interesting because they are not simple representatives of good or bad, all of them are inconstant and simultaneously carry pure and condemning feelings.
Another fundamental detail of the saga is that there is not a single protagonist, year long the narrative, the central characters alternate. In two characters he is safe, often Martin built a twist and assassin with two serious protagonists without mercy.
Written in short chapters, Two Thrones War - or first volume of the saga - presents the characters, or the historical scene that will guide the entire narrative. Subsequent volumes narrate the story below, always permeated by unexpected twists and turns.
The second volume, A clash of kings, released in 1998, perpetuated with an atmosphere of suspense invoked not first free.

O sixth and seventh books are still to be released - no time has been defined -, embora as publicações já tenham ganhado nome (The winds of winter and A dream of spring).
Error in the Brazilian edition
Published in July 2012 in Brazil, or I live five da saga, entitled A dance dos dragões, you have a peculiar history.
I ordered the editor Leya to print a huge print run, an edition of 150 thousand copies. Qual was the surprise of the public that read or discovered that, that first edition I longed for, I saw as an absent chapter. Due to a production error, A dance dos dragões saw ten pages unless, or chapter 26 had not been printed.
A publisher promptly available or absent chapter did not site, but, in any way, was obliged to collect the defective exemplars. A company lost close to a milhão de reais hair deception.
