It was good but slower paced that I’m used to and did have to drag myself through it to some points. That ending though 👌

sacculent's review against another edition

200 pages in and nothing to hook me in. Only thing i enjoyed was removed from the story way to fast to make me even feel attached to it. Dealing with all the sexual assault and misogyny doesnt seem worth it so far. I dont doubt that it gets good eventually i just cant get through the way too much slow ass build up

Truly, this is a beast of a book. I love the character development of Daenerys, Robb, and Jon especially. While the book didn't make me immediately love the characters, I found that I really grew attached to them throughout the process of reading, really caring for some and truly hating others. Overall, it's a truly amazing piece of fiction. I look forward to buying and reading the rest of the currently available series. Definitely for more mature readers, and I think if you like Brandon Sanderson, these books are right up your alley (and vis versa), though be prepared for much darker themes and descriptions.
