arnoutbrokking 's review for:

A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin
1.0

Verdict: 0,5 ludwigs

Remember those thrilling times you had in Westeros at the beginning of the series? The disappointment that Dance brought me, soured those memories and turned them bittersweet. Dance and the earlier Feast for Crows together would make one good book. Apart, not so much.

Why should you read it?

Because it' s Book 5 in A Song of Ice and Fire. A series that started off with 3 thrilling, brilliant installments and one excusable mis-fire.

Why should you not read it?

It is slow, Dull with Dragons, and worse it has many main-players acting completely out of character. No earlier cliff-hanger gets resolved satisfactorily and yet more pop up in annoying numbers. Martin called it a bitch to write and it shows.
