Each time the chapter changes, the perspective changes as well.
The books are told through the eyes of several characters. The first novel, Game of Thrones picks up as King Robert is about to die, and thus starts the fight for the throne. Fourteen years before the first book, the Targaryan dynesty was defeated by a rebellion led by Robert Baratheon, who then became king. They ruled because they had the power of Dragons, until they were extinct. Before the first book, and thousands of years before the story picks up, the Kingdoms of Westeros were united under the Targaryen Dynasty.

To fully understand the brilliance of the books, the readers must know the back-story. It is no coincidence that there are nine regions and nine main houses that are all fighting for full control. Westeros is a massive place and it is split into nine regions – The North, The Vale, The Riverlands, The Iron Islands, The Westerlands, The Reach, The Stormlands, The Crownlands and Dorne. There are also the wildlings and other supernatural beings who live beyond the wall and want to fight for their stake in Westeros. Over the course of the books, they all form allegiances with each other through marriages of the young and promises of land, should they win the war. Each of the nine houses have control of areas in Westeros but they want the full control of the whole of the land. In the books, there are nine houses that are in the main fight for the iron throne and the control of Westeros. The wall is protected by the men of the Nights Watch. The other side of the wall is home to supernatural evils that are collectively named the others. Westeros is protected by a wall, which keeps the evils from beyond the wall from joining the war for the iron throne. The books start with a war between families, also called houses, for the control of the Iron Throne. The books are set in the fictional world of Westeros and Essos. The 6th book is set to be called The Winds of Winter. Five books have already been published and he is working on the 6th right now. Martin intended the series to be a trilogy, but he now plans on writing seven books. The title of the TV show was taken from the title of the first book in the series. Martin’s book series A Song of Ice and Fire. Game of Thrones is the TV adaptation of George R.R.
