HBO has released a teaser trailer for the second season of Game of Thrones – set to premiere on April 1st. The season will be based on the second book (A Clash of Kings) in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series.
A Clash of Kings picks up where A Game of Thrones ended. The Seven Kingdoms of Westeros are plagued by civil war, while the Night’s Watch mounts a reconnaissance force north of the Wall to investigate the mysterious people, known as wildlings, who live there. Meanwhile, in the distant east, Daenerys Targaryen continues her quest to return to and conquer the Seven Kingdoms. All signs are foreshadowing the terrible disaster that is to come.
