## Summary

The article recommends ten fantasy books for readers who enjoy *Game of Thrones*, focusing on works that share its bleak tone, political struggles and morally compromised characters. It describes these stories as grimdark fantasy, where corruption and violence are common and clear distinctions between good and evil are often absent.

Among the examples, *Prince of Thorns* follows a 14-year-old prince pursuing control of an empire divided into roughly 100 kingdoms, while a magical threat follows him. *Blood of Elves*, the first full novel in Andrzej Sapkowski’s *Witcher* series, centres on monster hunter Geralt and is praised for its sombre, cynical outlook. The article also introduces *The Grim Company*, set five centuries after a devastating war between mages and gods.
