A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1)1512 reviews
George R.R. Martin

Spectra, 2005

Absolutely among the best I've read. Edgy stage-setting adventure creates an intriguingly cruel world

+ Brilliant start of a great series
+ A great start to a great series

This book was recommended by a friend. I have since recommended it (and the series) to anyone with a bend for fantasy, fiction, political scheming, and/or adventure. Buy it, read it, then spread it. You will not be disappointed...unless of course adult themes and content offend you.
