Let's perform an exercise. Start by picturing a character from the book you just read. Any character at all. Got him/her in mind?

They'll die.

Sorry for the spoilers. :P The later books aren't bad, but EVERYONE remotely interesting dies off quickly, and there are no worthy replacements.


'EVERYONE' of course actually being "about six really major characters leaving dozens still going" ;)


I kept reading, but almost decided I didn't want to do a re-read when *SPOILER* Rob Stark died.
I'm re-reading at the moment though.

Oh alright, so there was a bit of exaggeration. (very slight real spoilers) Aemon - 04/09/2009 06:18:13 PM 796 Views

If you keep up the 15-year delay, you may not have to wait to read the fifth book... Craig - 05/09/2009 01:28:52 AM 800 Views

More or less Werthead - 05/09/2009 06:59:53 PM 689 Views
