So I finally decided to dive into book three of George RR Martins "A Song of Ice and Fire." Mainly, because season three of Game of Thrones will begin soon. I realize this is a hard review. It's not like anything is going to begin with this book and if you have read the first two, I don't understand why you'd stop now.
I was hooked ever since I first read a Game of Thrones a couple of years ago. Unfortunately, I'm a pretty slow reader and I have trouble diving into a books with over a thousand pages. So I didn't have the motivation to read each one right after the other.
The amazing thing is a soon as I started reading the first pages I was immediately transported back to Westeros, like I only finished a Clash of Kings yesterday. The characters are fresh and exciting. You actually continue to learn more and more about the individuals. I have absolutely no idea where this story is going and I can't begin to guess. It leaves me on my toes the whole way through to the end. Parts are shocking, sad, happy, and all at the same time.
A true masterpiece, arguably the best of the first three books.
Thanks
