I have been reading this book for over a month now and it's time to STOP. It's defeated me, I'm done. I'm a shadow of my former self. I am now a corpse like WIGHT prowling the frozen lands of the North, dazed and confused, thinking I am from the cast of LOST. My New Year's resolution is to just give up and move on!
This book has been like a boa constrictor round my neck and I have finally cut loose. Unfortunately according to Amazon there are about 50 million people who disagree with me but hey, maybe they are just sticking with the TV show. Now that sounds like much more fun!
Life is just too short to carry on reading this. I am sadly 50% through but I just can't handle it any more!
it's a shame because I liked the first book but this is just a sea full of margarine. I deeply respect the script writers of the TV series for dredging the good bits out of this over long saga and making HBO, the actors, themselves and Mr. Martin lots of money.
I do like the idea behind the books though and think it's perfect for a TV series. I just can't take the structure and rambling style of the writing anymore! I have heard there is lots of sex in the TV series. Well, all I can say is this book might be better if there were more sex in it. (Probably not though.)
Also George Martin should be banned from writing from the perspective of grown women. It's unbelievable that they are all either semi clad sex goddesses with dragon babies (Danerys) mad evil bitches who slap men's faces a lot and scream (Cersei) or boring whinging mothers whose chapters are completely dull. (catylyn.) At least the men and child characters are far more interesting!
Right enough...must go and feed my dragons.
PS can anyone lend me the TV series?
