We&#8217;ve added some new art, replaced some old art (but kept most of the great stuff from the first edition, natch) freshened up the design, and FFG will soon be re-releasing the book for all those of you who missed the first one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pics.livejournal.com\/grrm\/pic\/000aq24z\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/import\/s320x240200\" width=\"193\" height=\"240\" border='0'\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The art book should be available this summer from FFG, Amazon, or your local bookstore.<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.fantasyflightgames.com\/edge_minisite.asp?eidm=121&#038;enmi=The Art of A Song of Ice &#038; Fire<\/p>\n<p>And&#8230; even better&#8230; FFG is now putting together a SECOND art book, with all new Ice &#038; Fire artwork from their stable of kickass illustrators.
