A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

4.0

Very good. Exceptional plot, interesting characters. This book more or less feels like 90% build up/setting the stage for later entries in the series but was done very well. The only issue I really have was with one of the story lines. All of the other storylines flow seamlessly with one another yet Daenerys' feels very out of place. Most of the breaks I took while reading would occur when her name was heading the next chapter. I'm expecting more out of her storyline later on but a book will always struggle in areas where attention is diverted from better characters and more interesting plot lines. 8/10
