The never-before-seen history of Westeros and the lands beyond. With hundreds of pages of all-new material from George R.R. Martin. If the past is prologue, then George R.R. Martin's masterwork-the most inventive and entertaining fantasy saga of our time-warrants one hell of an introduction. At long last, it has arrived with THE WORLD OF ICE AND FIRE. George R.R. Martin, in collaboration with Elio M. Garcia, Jr. and Linda Antonsson, has written a comprehensive history of the Seven Kingdoms, featuring the epic battles, bitter rivalries, and daring rebellions that lead up to the events in the bestselling A Song of Ice and Fire series. Collected within this volume is the accumulated knowledge, scholarly speculation, and inherited folk tales of maesters and septons, maegi and singers, family trees for the Houses Stark, Lannister and Targaryen, and in-depth explanations of the history and culture of Westeros. This is the definitive companion volume to George R.R. Martin's dazzlingly conceived universe; THE WORLD OF ICE AND FIRE is indeed proof that the pen is mightier than a storm of swords.

Fortællingen om Húrins børn opstod i sin første form i 1918 som en af de tre Store Fortællinger, som Tolkien arbejdede på hele sit liv, men aldrig udgav. Fortællingerne var en del af hans livslange projekt om at skabe et stort, sammenhængende mytisk univers, der kulminerede med skabelsen af Ringenes herre i 50'erne. Fortællingen om Húrins børn finder sted længe før Frodos kamp mod Sauron - i Tolkiens tidsregning ca. 6.500 år før. Elementer i historien har optrådt her og der i de kendte romaner - f.eks. er Aragorns natlige beretning om Beren og Lúthien til hobbitterne på Vejrhøj i Ringenes herre bd. 1, en af de oprindelige tre Store Fortællinger - men en samlet fremstilling nåede Tolkien ikke at skabe. Det er nu lykkedes hans søn Christopher at samle faderens mange skitser til en fortløbende beretning om den legendariske Húrins to børn Túrin og Niënor, deres kamp mod Den Store Fjende Melkor Morgoth, og ikke mindst den forfærdelige forbandelse, der hviler over dem. Bogen er meget smukt illustreret af Alan Lee, som har illustreret adskillige Tolkien-udgivelser og vandt en Oscar for bedste filmdesign i filmatiseringen af Ringenes herre-trilogien.
