    A Game of Thrones: A Song of Ice and Fire: Book One (Paperback)

  • Do not listen to the negative reviews!  

    A Game of Thrones: A Song of Ice and Fire: Book One (Paperback)
    This book and its sequel are, quite simply, the best fantasy novels published in the past 20 years. In fact, the only other fantasy stories I enjoy as much as two thesis are Leiber's Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser tales (thesis books are better than Jord

  • Flawed but readable  

    A Game of Thrones: A Song of Ice and Fire: Book One (Paperback)
    A Game of Thrones has its share of flaws - multiple, shifting viewpoints did sap the narrative's strength, a non-existent conclusion and occasionally irritating repetitive expressions. The constant jumping from one character to another made me read t
