The Lands of Ice and Fire is a boxed collection of twelve A Song of Ice and Fire map posters, stretching from Westeros to Asshai. It is illustrated by cartographer Jonathan Roberts of the Fantastic Maps blog. The collection came out in the US from Bantam Books on 30 October 2012[1] and in the UK from HarperCollins Voyager on 8 November 2012. Six of the maps were included in the A World of Ice and Fire app's update on 20 September 2013.

The idea was to do something representing the lands and seas of which, say, a maester of the Citadel might be aware... and while the maesters know more about Asshai and the lands beyond than a medieval monk knew about Cathay, distance remains a factor, and past a certain point legends and myths will creep here. Here there be winged men, and such.[3]

- George R. R. Martin
