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.
