There is an Iron Throne in one part of the kingdom and whoever sits on it rules the kingdom. It's about those who sit on it, plots to get those on it removed, plots to get people seated on it. It's Fantasy but very addictive! I've got Kaijin reading the books too She's just finished book 3, which will be the new season 3. What I said to her I'll say to you "It's got violence, sex and incest in it but it is addictive. If you can get past the incest then you'll be okay".
