"Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armour yourself in it and it will never be used to hurt you."
This epic fantasy novel is the first book in the A Song of Fire and Ice serious. Set in a world where anything can happen, winter is coming and everything the characters know and love is about to change. When the king dies unexpectedly, a battle for the iron throne begins.
I have always really enjoyed fantasy books (especially in my pre-teenage years), but I haven't started a fantasy serious for a long time. Maybe because I have so many other books to read and multi-volume sets take so much time! I wanted to read it before I watched the serious on HBO, so I figured I would give it a try. Anyways, I really enjoyed this book! I loved all of the complex characters and seeing their lives intertwine throughout the story. This is the only volume of the series that I have read so far, but I'm almost done with the third season of the HBO show and it's amazing...I can't wait catch up on the show and read the rest of the books!
