Description

The long-awaited fifth volume in the hugely popular and highly acclaimed epic fantasy A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE The last of the Targaryons, Daenerys Stormborn, the Unburnt, has brought the young dragons in her care to their terrifying maturity. Now the war-torn landscape of the Seven Kingdoms is threatened by destruction as vast as in the violent past. Tyrion Lannister, a dwarf with half a nose and a scar from eye to chin, has slain his father and escaped the Red Keep in King's Landing to wage war from the Free Cities beyond the narrow sea. The last war fought with dragons was a cataclysm powerful enough to shatter the Valyrian peninsula into a smoking, demon-haunted ruin half drowned by the sea. A DANCE WITH DRAGONS brings to life dark magic, complex political intrigue and horrific bloodshed as events at the Wall and beyond the sea threaten the ancient land of Westeros.

Very good story and well written. Vibrant characters, real page turner.

However... It's very long, so.much going on. Could be a little more concise.

Finally, he comes out with the 5th book! George is back to his writing after the teaser of A Feast of Crows. Yes, I'm being nice in regards to his last book. With a Dance With Dragons, we see the world and characters we missed! I wonder if it will be another 5+ years until we see the next book! If you haven't read GRRM and his series A Song if Ice and Fire, I highly recommend that you buy the first book A Game Of Thrones today! It is one of the best books I have ever read.
