Most maps found in fantasy novels are rather uniform in design, following the style of, for example, the black-and-white maps Pauline Baynes did for novels by Lewis and Tolkien. J. E. Fullerton’s maps of the world of George R. R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire series aren’t like that at all: full of icons and colour, they’re a little closer to medieval maps in style, maybe, than children’s book illustrations.
Maps of Martin’s ‘Song of Ice and Fire’ first appeared on The Map Room: A Weblog About Maps on October 21, 2010. Copyright © 2010 Jonathan Crowe. Distributed under a Creative Commons licence.
