Babes of Thrones is the title of the very first ebook in a nevertheless to be completed fantasy sequence by George R.R. Martin, entitled A Track Of Fireplace And Ice. Babes Of Thrones is also a just lately unveiled recreation on 360 and PS3, a board recreation, a card recreation, a tabletop purpose actively playing recreation, a graphic novel, the subject matter of many iOS and Google Participate in applications, and an impending Facebook recreation.
