I finished "A Game of Thrones" this morning. The book, not the television show... although I can't wait for that too!
This book was phenomenal. I'm not going to try to describe the plot, setting, characters, story, writing style, or my enthusiasm for the novel... it's too pedantic for this blog. Rather than slog down that road, I'll state my feelings as such:
Go read this book!
It's long-ish. It's addictive! It's scary and fun and thrilling. It's sexy and mysterious and violent and saccharine at times. It's extremely detailed and well thought out. It's dark and dreamy and doesn't treat you (the reader) like an idiot.
Go read this book! Thank you, Mr. Martin!
Can't wait for the rest...
Peace
AM Son
