I like A Song of Ice and Fire. I did not like this. I can live with unhappy endings. But the only character that was developed was Adara, and she just wasn't likeable enough for me to buy the sacrifice she made. Also, for someone who was clearly meant to have some sort of connection to the ice dragon, she didn't seem too moved by its own sacrifice.
A nice, inconsequential little tale, though it's a strange children's story that features graphic descriptions of men wounded at war and burned by dragons. The back of the book states this story takes place in the A Song of Ice and Fire universe, and it shares many of those elements and themes, but finding an actual connection will probably cause you headaches (unless Geoff is Benjen or something). +1 star for great illustrations

Tütarlaps Adara sünnib kõige jäisemal talvepäeval, mida iidsetest aegadest saadik on kogetud. Ta ei tunne külma ning kui teised on toas soojas, mängib Adara meelsasti lumes. Kui tüdruk saab nelja-aastaseks, katsub ta esimest korda kardetud Jäälohe, kes jätab endast järele ainult pakasest paukuva raja. Kui Adara saab viie-aastaseks, sõidab ta esimest korda Jäälohe seljas. Talved lähevad üha külmemaks.
Hoolimata väga väikesest sõnade arvust, on tähendus loo taga suur. Igaüks, nii laps kui täiskasvanu, saab seda raamatut tõlgendada erinevalt, samas nautides imelisi illustratsioone, mis loovad kõheda, kuid kauni pildi külmast-jäisest maailmast. Mulle meeldib just see detailsus, mida on kasutatud jäälohe kirjeldamisel ja mis kajastub ka joonistustes. Ja ometi oleksin ma tahtnud veel lugeda sellest, mis sai edasi, pärast raamatu lõppu. Tundsin, et mulle anti vaid väike jupike mõnest potentsiaalikast suurprojektist.
Aga mis seal ikka.. tuleb veel kannatlikult oodata, kunas autor Jää ja tule laulu saagaga jätkab..
