    Default Game of Thrones

    Referring here to the books, mainly.

    So, who's up to reading the whole epic? Just finished book 2 today (A Clash of Kings) and I must say I'm really enjoying the series so far. I for one love the whole political intrigue and change of situation in the books, always keeps me guessing what happens next. Sometimes it's pleasantly surprising, sometimes I feel bad for the characters I root for.

    Anyone else?

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Made a post about it in 'what're you reading' thread.
    Finished Feast of Crows.
    Up till now the first book is my favourite.

    Quoting from other post-

    Going to get a A Dance with Dragons soon.
    Wikipedia says that there are two more books left after this. Considering the number of loose ends and unanswered questions though, I cannot see how GRRM can tie them all up in just two books, satisfactorily.
    Pretty intriguing names though.
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring. Makes one wonder if there is going to be a happy ending to books. The last book's name seems to suggest otherwise.


    The horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight.

    The first book is sitting on my desk, waiting for a less hectic time in my life to be cracked open. I don't imagine it's the type of book you can read with lots of distractions.

    It will draw you in quite easily, especially the first book.
