War between the kings continue. While Robb is trying to keep his supporters, his mother Catelyn release and send Jaime to Cersei to get her daughters Sansa and maybe Arya back. Brienne guide Jaime. Arya is trying to get to her mother and brother, but she had no luck. And Jon is spying the wilds.
This book was again very exciting and all the time want to read more to find out what will happend next. Again the were some boring tellers, like Davos, but all the time there is less boring people. I think this serie is one of the best I have ever read. Now I will go to start next part of this serie.

Unecessesary use of the N word is what brought the rating down for me. The story line is wonderful.

A Storm of Swords 1: Steel and Snow by @gantagebookreviews
Winter is certainly coming into the world of Westeros: Jon Snow starts this book in a ranging over the before meeting the first love of his life Ygritte “You know nothing” Freewoman; Theon “I’m a twat” Greyjoy is an even bigger twat but gets his first taste of real twat when he meetings the Bastard of Bolton; Bran is still being a moody little bitch searching for the three eyed raven with probably the best not main point of view character in the novel (Meera) doing her thang; Robb Stark has won some decent battles but decides to dick over everyone by marrying a bird he wasn’t supposed; Catelyn releases Jaime Stark who almost falls in love with Brienne (the actual best non-POV character); Arya who is almost a bad bitch but not quite there yet is almost saved three times and ends up as close to home as she’ll be for three more books; Sansa - reading some of Sansa’s stuff is like watching paint dry - gets married off by the Lannisters.
It’s all very convoluted and if you don’t read it quickly you get lost in the mire. I need to find some kind of map that tracks where the characters are at some points because I swear to god it can take one character a whole book to move across a town.
I forgot Daenerys. My god try spelling her name without looking it up. She’s got three dragons now and they are causing HAVOC.
The book starts with what the characters were doing during the final battle of book. Every little thing is important which is why I have to drag myself through another Sansa chapter. In fact, hers are probably the most important because they’re full of so much intrigue - she builds a great relationship with the Queen of Thorns that needs to be explored further.
I’m glad I don’t have to wait long to read the next one because I think I’d be lost.
So many sub plots and main plots.
Overall: needs less bitching Sansa and more bad man Brienne of Tarth.
5/5

Este é a primeira metade do livro original "A Storm of Swords" e a história está a tornar-se cada vez mais cativante. Apesar de ainda encontrar alguns momentos mortos nalguns capítulos, que me obrigam a fazer uma pequena pausa para mais tarde retomar a leitura com o dobro da força, estes momentos são cada vez mais escassos, felizmente.
Diz-se que este livro (o volume original) é o mais interessante da saga até ao momento e de facto isso está-se a revelar verdadeiro também para mim. Neste momento quero conhecer mais de praticamente todas as personagens, pelo que salvo raras excepções, cada capítulo que surge é motivo de entusiasmo.
Não vou acrescentar nada sobre a história em si porque qualquer pormenor sobre a mesma é um spoiler gigantesco. :)
Esta obra magnífica está cada vez melhor! 4.5/5
