Living to Tell the Tale spans Marquez's life from his birth in 1927, through the beginning of his career as a writer, to the moment in the 1950s when he proposed to the woman who would become his wife.

The Seven Kingdoms are divided by revolt and blood feud, and winter approaches like an angry beast. Beyond the Northern borders, wildlings leave their villages to gather in the ice and stone wasteland of the Frostfangs.

And Daenerys Stormborn will return to the land of her birth to avenge the murder of her father, the last Dragon King on the Iron Throne.
