A Song of Ice and Fire

Postby Michael » Thu Jul 28, 2005 7:42 pm

I started reading the first book--Game of Thrones--about a year ago, but quite because there was so much sex in it. I kind of want to pick it back up again because I really got hooked on the story. Has anyone else read it? Any comments on it?

I LOVE the song of fire and ice books!! I'm waiting anxiously for Feast for Crows (finished the other 3) besides all the blatant sex scenes they are awesome well written books. The stories are addictive (thus why I'm anxious for feast for crows to hurry up and come out) but yeah your not the only one who's read it ^^

I'm looking into getting it because of a recommendation. So... without giving any spoilers, what's addictive about it?

The characters, the story, just the whole feel really keeps you hooked.

The biggest problem is the two million sex scenes George Martin put into it. It's really bad;

[spoiler="Really nasty stuff"]There's even one between a 13 year old girl and a 30-something man. It was pretty grapic too. It stinks because the rest of it is so dang good.[/spoiler]

oh yeah that part *shudders* it gets a little much....but what is so addictive I think is his writing style....you get the perspective of each of the main characters and see the story from their eyes...and the story...the story itself is enough to get ya hooked
