In the midst of the long winter known as the wait for the final season of Game of Thrones, it’s important to find ways to stay entertained. And while George R.R. Martin may not be putting out The Winds of Winter, the next installment in his A Song of Ice and Fire series, anytime soon, there are more than enough books that incorporate elements of his writing—medieval lands, complex heroines, and political scheming—to keep your mind off the Iron Throne. In honor of Thrones‘ most sacred number, here are seven books to read while you wait to return to Westeros. The Name of the Wind Patrick Rothfuss’s ongoing Kingkiller Chronicle trilogy is currently being adapted for the screen by none other than Hamilton genius Lin-Manuel Miranda, so there’s no better time to hop on this particular fantasy bandwagon.
