The Armageddon Rag by George R.R. Martin
5.0
The more I read of George R.R. Martin's novels, the more I feel it's unfair to him as an author to always be mentioning A Song of Ice and Fire. His writing is so much more than that popular series of books. "The Armageddon Rag" is an amazing story of the power of music and belief, and what happens to people who lose their faith. I have to say, though the rock band that is an integral part of the story is fictional, I am fairly sure I would love it and the music.
The story builds up, the tension is almost palpable, you can feel it all speeding towards the inevitable. But of course, this wouldn't be a GRRM novel if it was predictable. And believe me, it is most definitely a GRRM novel. I closed the book with a half-shouted "YES!" on my lips. As will you.
