Song of fire and ice is serious junk. george martin is seriously fucked. the characters are shallow and hollow...he turns to cheap crazy things to try and give them depth...oh look [character] fucks a black chick and talks about licking semen off her own face and fingers while referring to them as people see how deep her character is now! most characters can be summed up in just a few words...some even less.
his main plot driver happens to be the murder of main characters and introduction of new ones (some who only last a couple chapters). i like murdering and maiming main characters...it creates suspense when they get into dangerous situations... but its more surprising when the characters dont die...except that since they are alive it means they still have the opportunity to die. mass character wipeouts should occur near the end or at a few critical moments throughout(large battles for example). murdering them pretty constantly throughout just makes it expected. |
Wow, this sounds terribly lame. Guess it all goes downhill after the first book.

I sincerely disagree with M. Bubbles, for the record. The series is excellent throughout.
|
I'm inclined to take his word for it, mainly considering I didn't really enjoy the series in the first place.
|
lulz, this doesn't bode well for me, I've just started reading from the first book, If it's as bad as you say then the next 750 pages are gonna be hell.
|
no issues with the first book. its almost exactly as the show is, if youve watched that.

Missed the show, I'm going in blind.
