So... A Game of Thrones Monkey Send a noteboard - 04/09/2009 03:52:25 PM
Yes, I know I'm about 15 years late. Deal with it.

I just finished reading A Game of Thrones, and enjoyed it very very much. It's a very difficult book, but very rewarding. Seeing as everyone will have read it years ago, I won't go into detail but there's a few things I wanted to comment on:

- Jon Snow is awesome. He makes me sad.

- Dany. While her plotline ended up being really good in her last few chapters, what the hell is going on with it? Am I to understand it's still had nothing to do with anything by the end of the fourth book?

- Did I misread it or did Arya go out on a live-or-die cliffhanger with about 100 pages to go? I know she's not dead but if that's right then that's a really weird way of ending her storyarc in this book.

- Sansa. Oh lord, Sansa.

'Game' was good. The rest go downhill fast, though. - 04/09/2009 04:53:57 PM 780 Views

Oh alright, so there was a bit of exaggeration. (very slight real spoilers) - 04/09/2009 06:18:13 PM 658 Views
