Review: A Game of Thrones


A Game of Thrones
A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I began the book with not so high expectations. Not that I thought it would be a bad read, but mostly because I wanted to read the book before starting to watch the series.

But wow, did the book capture me! It was far better that I ever had thought. I really loved how rich the world was built, it felt real and well thought. The characters well developed and believable. The characters and the happenings really made me feel; sadness, hope, bitterness, irritation, frustrating, chock. Its seldom I have felt so emotions so strongly true a book.

I really liked as well that the book dared to be dark. That the characters were not holy, that bad things could happen and without making up for it.

A new favourite.
