The Battle continues in Westeros with feuding families and power
hungry rulers. Five Kings vie for a single, all-powerful throne
in the all-new season of Game of Thrones--an epic story of
duplicity and treachery, nobility and honour, conquest and
triumph.
Season 2 plays out against the backdrop of a fast-approaching
winter. In King's Landing, the coveted Iron Throne is occupied by
cruel young Joffrey, counseled by his conniving mother Cersei and
uncle Tyrion. But the Lannister hold on the Throne is under
assault on many fronts. There's Robb Stark, son of the slain Lord
of Winterfell, Ned Stark; Daenerys Targaryen, who looks to shore
up her depleted power through three newborn dragons; Stannis
Baratheon, eldest brother of the late King Robert; and Stannis'
brother Renly, who has maintained his own cl since fleeing
King's Landing. In the meantime, a new leader is rising among the
wildlings North of the Wall, adding new perils for Jon Snow and
the Night's Watch. With tensions and treaties, animosity and
alliances, season 2 of Game of Thrones promises to be a thrilling
journey through a riveting, unforgettable landscape.
