-AGame of Thrones
-A Clash of Kings
-A Storm of Swords
-A Feast for Crows
-A Dance With Dragons
-Winds of Winter
-A Dream of Spring
I'll give u a summary of what the series is about even if u never read it's easy to get into
Eddard Stark is the lord of the north, but he's friends with (and less powerful than) King Robert Baratheon. So when Robert asks Eddard to be the Hand of the King (which is like being Prime Minister, but less fun), Eddard can't really refuse. (What makes this even less fun is that the old Hand died under mysterious circumstances; and he was also a good friend.) So Eddard decides to go to the capital, King's Landing. There's just one problem: the Stark family symbol is a direwolf and all six of Eddard's kids have one of these giant wolves – and they're not really city pets.
Unfortunately, the Stark family doesn't get along so well with the Lannister family. This is an issue because Cersei Lannister is the queen; and her twin brother Jaime is a powerful knight. But the third brother is Tyrion, and he seems like an okay guy: he's funny and smart (and a dwarf, by the way). By the way, the Lannister family has a secret: Cersei and Jaime are incestuous. This is so dangerous a secret that Jaime throws young Bran Stark from a tower when he sees the Lannister twins in the act.
Down in King's Landing, Eddard gets caught up in the court politics and conspiracy. Eddard doesn't know whom to trust: should he trust his wife's old friend, Petyr Baelish, who is now a powerful politician (read: schemer)? Should he trust the old wise man, Maester Pycelle, who seems to be an ally of the queen? Or the spymaster, Varys?
After another assassination attempt on Bran's life, Catelyn comes down to King's Landing with the knife that was used to try to kill Bran. (Luckily, Bran has a wolf to protect him.) Petyr tells her that the knife is Tyrion's. So when Catelyn heads home and runs into Tyrion (coming back from the Wall), she decides to take him prisoner and takes him to see her completely crazy sister. That doesn't go well and Tyrion wins his freedom and a small army.
Meanwhile, Eddard learns that King Robert has a lot of illegitimate children and they all have his dark hair, which is very different from Robert's children with Cersei. In fact, Cersei's three kids look a lot like… Jaime. Yeah. So now Eddard knows the big secret, which isn't just gross, but is also a political issue: Cersei's kids aren't true heirs to the throne. Eddard tells Cersei that he knows about her incestuous relationship and that she should get out of town. She responds (we're paraphrasing here): "You gonna make me? You and what army?"
When Robert dies (under mysterious circumstances), Cersei arrests Eddard. She promises to protect his two daughters Sansa and Arya (the two he brought down to King's Landing) if, and only if, he'll confess to treason. He does just this, and Cersei's son Joffrey – now the king – has Eddard killed.
So now we have war in Westeros: Eddard's oldest (trueborn) son, Robb Stark, is now in charge of the north and he has an army. Meanwhile, the Lannister army has been attacking the Tully family in the Riverlands. (It doesn't help that Catelyn is a Tully by birth.) Although he's very young, Robb turns out to be a pretty good commander, even capturing Jaime Lannister. But Robb isn't sure who should be king of all Westeros, until his followers tell him that he should secede and be the king in the north, like in the old days. It's funny to see that even in fantasy worlds, people still love them some nostalgia.
