About George R R Martin

George R.R. Martin sold his first story in 1971 and has been writing professionally ever since. He has written fantasy, horror, and science fiction, and for his sins spent ten years in Hollywood as a writer/producer, working on Twilight Zone, Beauty and the Beast, and various feature films and television pilots that were never made. In the mid 90s he returned to prose, his first love, and began work on his epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire. He has been in the Seven Kingdoms ever since. Whenever he's allowed to leave, he returns to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he lives with the lovely Parris, a big white dog called Mischa, and two cats named Augustus and Caligula who think they run the place.

George R R Martin recommends

Frontera (1984) Lewis Shiner "Hard-edged and colorful and relentless, and altogether a compelling read."	Swordspoint (1987) (Swords of Riverside) Ellen Kushner "Swordspoint has an unforgettable opening ... and just gets better from there."	Ship of Magic (1998) (Liveship Traders, book 1) Robin Hobb "I fell right through the pages.... Even better than the Assassin books. I didn't think that was possible."
Fool's Fate (2003) (Tawny Man, book 3) Robin Hobb "Robin Hobb's books are like diamonds in a sea of zircons."	Conventions of War (2005) (Dread Empire's Fall, book 3) Walter Jon Williams "Interstellar adventure has a new king, and his name is Walter Jon Williams."	A Shadow in Summer (2006) (Long Price Quartet, book 1) Daniel Abraham "A Shadow in Summer is a thoroughly engrossing debut novel from a major new fantasist. A poignant human tale of power, heartbreak, and betrayal."
The Lies of Locke Lamora (2006) (Gentleman Bastard, book 1) Scott Lynch "Fresh, original, and engrossing - gorgeously realized."	Forest Mage (2006) (Soldier Son, book 2) Robin Hobb "Even better than the Assassin books. I didn't think that was possible."	Wolfbreed (2009) (Wolfbreed, book 1) S A Swann "S.A. Swann has written a spellbinding fantasy of the Teutonic Knights and the great Northern Crusade, set in a little-known period of history amidst the gloomy forests of Prussia and Lithuania. Vivid and visceral, dark and delicious, this one kept me turning pages from start to finish."
Up Against It (2011) M J Locke "A bright light on the science fiction scene."	Leviathan Wakes (2011) (Expanse, book 1) James S A Corey "It's been too long since we've had a really kickass space opera."	The Coldest War (2012) (Raybould Marsh, book 2) Ian Tregillis "A major talent."
