A Game of Thrones

What is left to be said? Better than the tv series, I like the tv series and understand that it is just one interpretation. So setting aside the GRRM's bit I do want to talk about the performer Roy Dotrice. His reading is a barrier, not a complete barrier but an annoyance. The esteros characterizations are just a bit too cliche for me and overall well he feels a bit ponderous these ears but that may be the material. So I sped it up to 1.35 speed playback and that sorted it out for the most part.
