In the land of the Eight (or was it Six?) Kingdoms - where seasons can last decades and comparisons to Tolkien a lifetime - trouble is brewing. For the Barkers of Summerseve, times are about to get as tough as the pronunciation of 'Daenerys Targaryen'.

From this world of outdoor fornication with horse-people (and indoor fornication with blood relatives) comes an epic story of novella proportions as the Barkers, their BFFs, and their enemies strive to star in that funniest of concepts- a parody of George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones.

'The literary mash-up we're dying to see!' i09.com

'There was a bloodied knife on Allbran's bed. Lady Gateway Barker knew what she had to do; what all the royals in Summerseve did when somebody tried to kill a member of their family- gather up a bunch of people and horses, and go from one place to another.'

This is the hilarious parody of the George R. R. Martin bestseller A Game of Thrones.
