And I thought A Game of Thrones was excellent. Now I’m realizing that was just an epic prologue, setting the scene for the true masterpiece to begin. You’re taken along through slight after slight, twist and turn one after another. You’ll be stabbed in the heart a dozen times, loving and hating George for each jab he takes at you.
From what I’ve heard, A Clash of Kings and A Storm of Swords are truly the best stories ever written in fantasy. And I’m definitely starting to believe that after finishing ACOK. I’ll take a beat and read some other books before jumping into the ASOS though. My heart can’t take it quite yet.
