A Game of Thones by George R.R. Martin


TITLE:  A Game of Thones
AUTHOR:  Martin, George R.R.
GENRE:  Fantasy
DATES READ:  8/17/2017 - 10/5/2017
MY RATING:  5/5!!!

I finally decided to take another stab at it because I want to watch the series. I'm going to ping pong between audio versions and the hard copy because I think that will keep more motivated this time around.

In the game of thrones, you either win or you die. This unending battle for the Iron Throne is vast and treacherous. The first installment of A Song of Ice and Fire.

I LOVE this book!!! And I liked it overall more than I thought I would after the first go. There are so many character and so much detail. I think it was overwhelming the first time I picked it up. This time I was ready for it. I enjoyed the drama, the settings, and the fact that I now have an amazing show to start!!!

This (and all the rest, for that matter), are for detail-oriented readers. If you're not interested in learning a new land and reading about every little bit of intrigue (whether or not it's intriguing), you should probably steer clear. Martin goes into absolutely EVERYTHING!

A great fantasy canon to lose yourself in.

Will read and write soon!
