A Game of Thrones ???????????????A Clash of Kings ???????????????A Storm of Swords: (Part 1) Steel and Snow ???????????????A Storm of Swords: (Part 2) Blood and Gold ???????????????
I am so glad this book was split into two volumes in the UK because I had such incredibly different reading experiences with each volume. The first volume got a three star review from me which translated roughly into a slow moving book with insufficient plot to distract me from the repetitive nature of GRRM???s writing. I wouldn???t give any of the books in this series less than three however because they are of a decent quality when it comes to the technical aspects of writing and plotting.
As you can expect, this second volume really ramped up the plot. I checked, and events which occur in this volume span season three and four of the tv show. Plot points I did not remember or new ones that are ignored in the show have begun to show themselves and I am excited and ready for the next book.
Also this book completes my personal challenge of reading 50% of ASOIAF in 2018, as I was counting each volume individually.
