And it's a great, if harrowing read.
Ps, presumably Daenerys will eventually feature as something more than a wanderer.

Even though I initially read this book back in the early 2000’s I’m glad I picked up my computer again.
It’s a fantastic read, but I do feel the GRRM relies too much on SA to add drama or character development.
The larger themes of war and all its players is still thrilling.

Might be my favourite book in the series, I might not enjoy every POV, but they are all necessary and have some value.

definitely a lot slower and more about war plans and fighting
with king robert and lord ned dead, the north and south has been split between multiple kings
Daenerys fights for ships and the saftey of her clansmen against rich men and lords
theres so much to go into but if you watched the show first you wont be disappointed with extra information( so much talking!)
