Summers span decades. Winter can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun.

It will stretch from the south, where heat breeds plot, lusts and intrigues; to the vast and savage eastern lands; all the way to the frozen north, where an 800-foot wall of ice protects the kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men… all will play the Game of Thrones.

Winter is coming…

Brilliance to Bloat

George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" series starts brilliantly before losing its way. The first three books create a revolutionary fantasy world where political intrigue trumps magic, actions have consequences, and beloved characters face brutal deaths. However, books four and five introduce too many new characters and locations while leaving countless storylines unresolved. As someone who watched the TV adaptation first, I appreciate how the show attempted to provide closure to Martin's sprawling, unfinished saga. If you're considering diving in, prepare for an incredible beginning that unfortunately spirals into narrative chaos.
