A Feast of Crows
Well, after the events of book three, this one was set to be
a complete mind blower with readers itching to read the next big events that
would affect their characters, and to check their favourite characters hadn’t
been knocked off between books.
This book shows Cersei in her element, a new era in Kings
Landing. Jamie Lannister cements himself in your heart with his comments and
actions and talk of vows and promises. Once again, the reader is tossed into
the war for the Iron Throne, now admittedly dwindling as more and more kings
kick the bucket. You read with glee as Cersei loses at her own game, especially
when she realises what she has truly lost, for many reader’s this has been a
long time coming.
One thing disappoints with this book as none previously. For
those of you who love Tyrion or Jon or Daenerys then put on a brave face when
reading this book as you will have to wait until book six to discover
their fates. There are no chapters dedicated to them. If (like me) these are the character’s you love
to read and long for then A Feast of Crows will be a tedious read at times. Long winded in areas and filled with
characters who have previously only been used to support the more interesting
ones, this book is not one of George Martin’s best works and could be accused
of being a catch up from the mind-blowing events in book three.
All I can say is keep with it, you’ll be on book five soon!
