This is the 3rd installment of the epic saga Songs of Ice and Fire. It is also my favorite out of the three books that I’ve read so far. The storyline has thickened, the plots have become more complex, and Martin keeps killing off everyone! Your jaw falls to the floor when you finally realize what just had happened. Words cannot express how I felt when I read this book. In the back of my head always lingered the question, “Can he really do that? Did he really do that? I cant believe he did that!”The pace of the book was a bit slow in the beginning, but by the 2nd half, the storyline becomes so relentless, you cant put the book down.

This book is Martin’s finest work thus far. I cant wait to get my hands of a copy of A Feast of Crows. Being a Wheel of Time fan, I will finally admit that this series has completely surpassed Jordan’s work. Its on an entirely different level. If you have not read these books yet, you are truly missing out.
