Welcome to Tower of the Hand!
Tower of the Hand is an unofficial companion to George R. R. Martin's best-selling A Song of Ice and Fire series, featuring chapter summaries, character profiles, family trees, and much more about the world of Westeros.
This site is designed for both ASOIAF experts and new readers. If you've read at least the first book in the series (A Game of Thrones), you can follow along with our chapter summaries and view our reference pages without seeing a single detail from later books. Just remember to update your scope once you're caught up, so you can see all the details and participate in the community discussions.
If you have any questions, just let us know. Thanks for visiting Tower of the Hand!
