I’ve been reading George R.R.Martin since the start of the new year. It all began when I was gifted A Clash of Kings from Anjana for Christmas (Secret Santa). I started reading it, realized I loved it, and immediately downloaded the first book in the series – A Game of Thrones.
I am now just completely lost in this beautiful, fantastical, and often violent world that George R.R.Martin has created.
What I don’t like though is the dreary, black-and-white, small print maps that are available with the books themselves. So, I was thrilled when I saw these beautiful images on Kitkat Pecson’s site – maps of Westeros and Essos.
I love these maps, such lovely art-work, and just perfect to immerse myself further in these books.
Do you love this series like I do? How do you like these maps? If you like them, hop on over to KitKat’s blog for more such wonderful illustrations and some thoughts from the lady herself.
These are gorgeous! I’m here to troll your posts about GoT 😉
These are really beautiful!
Wow! This is awesome! This now has a place in my pictures folder 😀 I’m referring to this later while I read, as so I won’t get lost at times
Pretty pretty maps! Helps make sense of it all in much more interesting way. I love the tv series too!
@Shweta: I so wish I could see the TV series. I don’t think it’s on here in India as yet. Or is it? I should check and see.
I am a sucker for illustrations with stories and this one is lovely! though I read George Martin’s ‘ a Dance with Dragons’… and didn’t like it. People have told me that the first one’s are good and I managed to pick up the one that wasn’t up to standards.. but I don’t know.
I think the books make sense only if read in a series. Sad to hear that the last book was a little slow. The first two books are totally gripping, and I’ve read very good things about A Storm of Swords as well, so I’m happy for now 🙂
Same here! Even I am hooked to this series now. These maps are really good 🙂
@Ava: Till which book have you read?
I am still in the first book 🙁 how about you?
Just finished the second book.
