A Feast for Crows by George R.R. Martin
The Lannisters are in power on the Iron Throne.
The war in the Seven Kingdoms has burned itself out, but in its bitter aftermath new conflicts spark to life. The Martells of Dorne and the Starks of Winterfell seek vengeance for their dead. Euron Crow’s Eye, as black a pirate as ever raised a sail, returns from the smoking ruins of Valyria to claim the Iron Isles.
From the icy north, where Others threaten the Wall, apprentice Maester Samwell Tarly brings a mysterious babe in arms to the Citadel. As plots, intrigue and battle threaten to engulf Westeros, victory will go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel and the coldest hearts.
This is book 4 in the A song of Fire and Ice Series. This has been my least favourite of the books. It is basically a full story from half the characters perspective and the next book rolls the other characters perspective at the same time.
This was less action packed than previous booked and very Lannister heavy. There was a lot of talking and build up and I had to force myself through some chapters because it was just so boring.
The next book focus’s on some of my favourite characters so I think it will be much more of a success than this. I understand the need for it but at the same time it just felt like a lot of talk and little action.
