A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire #1)

A Game of Thrones  (A Song of Ice and Fire #1)A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Two words, epic-ly awesome!
I was wondering what the big hoopla was when HBO made this into an original series and everyone was talking about it. So, I started reading it thinking it's going to be similar to the Lord of the Rings trilogy. After taking more than a month to finish, I completely understand all the high praises heaped on this tome.
The world created by Mr. Martin was thorough and enriching. All the characters are so well developed that I was completely invested in everyone. I love and hate the characters deeply. It has been a long time since I've found a book so well done.
Now, I must watch the HBO series and read the rest of the series.
