<!-- About the book -->
<div>
<h2> About the book </h2>
<p> The story of A Song of Ice and Fire takes place in a fictional world, primarily on a continent called
Westeros but also on a large landmass to the east, known as Essos. Most of the characters are human but as
the series progresses others are introduced, such as the cold and menacing supernatural Others from the far
North and fire-breathing dragons from the East, both thought to be extinct by the humans of the story.
</p>
<p> There are three principal story lines in the series: the chronicling of a dynastic civil war for control of
Westeros among several competing families; the rising threat of the Others, who dwell beyond an immense wall
of ice that forms Westeros' northern border; and the ambition of Daenerys Targaryen, the exiled daughter of
a king who was murdered in another civil war fifteen years before, to return to Westeros and claim her
rightful throne. As the series progresses, the three story lines become increasingly interwoven and
dependent upon each other.
</p>
<p> The series is told in the third-person through the eyes of a number of point of view characters. By the end
of the fourth volume, there have been seventeen such characters with multiple chapters and eight who only
have one chapter apiece. Several new viewpoint characters are introduced by the conclusion of the fifth
volume, setting the stage for the major events of the sixth novel.
