Fire Dragons breathe fire and roam most of the habitable world, whilst Ice Dragons inhabit the coldest places known to man and freeze their prey to death.

The World of Ice & Fire is a companion book for George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Firefantasy series. Written by Martin, Elio M. García Jr. and Linda Antonsson, it was published by Bantam on October 28, 2014.[1][2][3] The 326-page volume is a fully illustrated 'history compendium' of Martin's fictional world, written from the perspective of an in-world 'Maester' and featuring newly written material, family trees, and extensive maps and artwork.[4][5]
Development[edit]
Elio García and Linda Antonsson head the A Song of Ice and FirefansiteWesteros.org.[4]George R. R. Martin enlisted them in 2006 to assist with the project, which at the time he believed would be finished by 2008.[6] García is a Martin 'superfan' whom the author and HBO have consulted on details previously established by Martin in the series.[7]
The book's planned length was 50,000 words, but historical references collected by García and Antonsson from the books amounted to 70,000, and after Martin 'polished it, expanded it and fill in the holes' it became 100,000 words. Martin also started writing 'sidebar' stories for the book but at one point he realized he had written 350,000 more words. As this did not fit the original concept of a fully illustrated book—the number of illustrations remaining the same—Martin removed his sidebar stories, and the rest was abridged by García and Antonsson. Parts of the removed material appeared in Gardner Dozois's anthologies Dangerous Women (as The Princess and the Queen), Rogues (as The Rogue Prince) and The Book of Swords (as The Sons of the Dragon).[8]
Addressing comparisons of The World of Ice & Fire to J. R. R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion, Martin clarified that while his book provides a basic overview of the many areas of his fictional world and their histories, he plans to someday publish a more extensive volume focusing primarily on the Targaryens, which he jokingly dubbed The GRRMarillion.[9] As plans for an eventual second companion book became more solidified, Martin said that it would more formally be titled Fire & Blood, because it gives expanded detail on the reign of each Targaryen king.[10]
Contents[edit]

Martin commented that the format of The World of Ice & Fire is intentionally a replication of a 'real history book' in which sources can contradict each other.[3] He also noted that he worked closely with the artists to render the characters and locales as he himself imagined them, as opposed to how they may be portrayed in HBO's Game of Thrones series and other media, such as comic books and games.[2]
Martin teased the book in July 2013 with a blog post praising Marc Simonetti's drawing of the Iron Throne, which was to appear in the book, as very close to his own idea of the throne, compared to the TV series version.[11] Upon the 2014 release of The World of Ice & Fire, he called its representation of the throne by Simonetti 'absolutely right'.[12] Martin said he had wanted the book to be a fully illustrated volume with art from 'the top fantasy illustrators in the world.'[9]The World of Ice & Fire features the work of 27 illustrators: Rene Aigner, Ryan Barger, Arthur Bozonnet, José Daniel Cabrera Peña, Jennifer Sol Cai, Thomas Denmark, Jennifer Drummond, Jordi González Escamilla, Michael Gellatly, Tomasz Jedruszek, Michael Komarck, John McCambridge, Mogri, Ted Nasmith, Karla Ortiz, Rahedie Yudha Pradito, Dhian Prasetya, Paolo Puggioni, Jonathan Roberts, Thomas Siagian, Marc Simonetti, Chase Stone, Philip Straub, Justin Sweet, Nutchapol Thitinunthakorn, Magali Villeneuve and Douglas Wheatley.[13]
