I just finished with the 2nd book of the series A Song of Ice and Fire. Im really enjoying it so far. The plot thickens in this book with the Seven Kingdoms splitting into sections ruled by “Self-Proclaimed” Kings. Each claiming that they have the lineage to the throne. Just as with the first book A Game of Thrones, what captivated me was Martin’s writing style. I actually found myself cheering for the most unlikely people and feeling heavy-hearted even for the characters I thought that were just plain sinful. Im just waiting for my roomate to finish up book three, A Storm of Swords. He actually read the first two books even before I started the series, but it seems that I’ve caught up quickly. LOL. I didn’t expect to get through both books in a month.

Current Character Favorites: Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and Bran Stark

  1. Coincidence! My copy of “A Game of Thrones” arrived just yesterday! Am still reading “Narnia” though (”Prince Caspia” atm). Very much looking forward to the first book of this saga.
