The Ice Dragon
by George R.R. Martin
I must admit I was not sure on how to approach to writing this review as I simply loved the book. There is just something so human, yet so otherworldly about the way George R. R. Martin writes his characters and worlds around them. I found this read to be somewhat inspiring, peaceful, perhaps healing in way. The story is simple, but compelling and in my honest opinion executed flawlessly.
The book may not contain the over-the-top detailed world-building, complex politics, or endless list of characters like some of G. R. R. Martin’s other works’, but that does not make it any worse. It’s simply different and to be quite honest beautiful in its own way.
I would also highly advise to get the physical copy of this book if possible. My favourite edition personally is the one illustrated by the one and only Luis Royo. The illustrations are simply stunning and convey the mood, atmosphere and emotion of the book so well.
This is the first book that introduced me to George R. R. Martin’s other works and I do not regret it one bit.
Simply put. It is a beautiful dream, it is not endless, but it is memorable in every way it needs to be. I hope you can love it the same way I did, or in your own way too. It’s beautiful.
