In the aftermath of a colossal battle, the future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance once again--beset by newly emerging threats from every direction. George R R Martin, for me is the new Tolkien and has created dynasties, fiendishly intertwined personalities and gripping drama.

By the fourth book, Martin kept more private notes than ever before to keep track of the many subplots, [34] which became so detailed and sprawling by the fifth book as to be unwieldy.I’ve read the whole seven books in ebook format some years ago but this time I’m enjoying the actual paper book experience.

The fourth volume in the greatest fantasy series of the modern age, A Feast for Crows marks a new chapter in the battle for the Iron Throne: one where new voices step forward to tell their part in the saga.Among the many derived works number several prequel novellas, two series for television, a comic book adaptation, and several card, board, and video games. Upon its release in October 2005 in the UK [48] and November 2005 in the US, [18] A Feast for Crows went straight to the top of The New York Times bestseller list. Both one-time and regular POV characters are designed to have full character arcs ending in tragedy or triumph, [38] and are written to hold the readers' interest and not be skipped in reading. Bloodthirsty, treacherous and cunning, the Lannisters are in power on the Iron Throne in the name of the boy-king Tommen. The story follows her year-long conflict with the region's city states, in which she aims to consolidate power, disrupt the Essosi slave trade, and gather support for her ambitions to reclaim Westeros.
