The Accursed Kings is a historical fiction series about the 12th and 13th century French monarchy. GRRM read the first six when they were first translated and published in the 60s. They didn't translate the seventh/last one so GRRM never finished reading the series, (so quit your bitching people and you know who you are) but he said that Accursed Kings was a major influence on him and because of this statement, so now they are reissuing and translating all of them. Only three have been reissued so far and it seems that they're coming out every six months. I was going to go ahead and start but when I found out that B&N didn't have except in eBook (only other way to get a hard copy is to order it online and I was already at B&N when I learned this) I decided to just wait and let a compilation come out when they're done with the reissue. It will probably be cheaper and I won't be sitting in book limbo.

Didn't know that! That is incredibly interesting. I will start them when I'm done with the Mistborn series.

Yet another series GRRM is never going to finish.
