![]() ![]() The plot is fantastical yet due to the believable richness of the characters, entirely plausible.Īnyhow, enough rambling about the series as a whole let's get down to the nitty-gritty of this particular outing. ![]() This is fantasy with a depth you will rarely see elsewhere. ![]() That is not to say that it is not all weaved around a staggeringly complex tale of swords and sorcery but for those who are not fans of the genre I would say that this series differs from the norm. The series as a whole is more about the family relationships and the fratricide, incest and vengeance to be found within them. The "Song of Fire and Ice" series is all about the politics of royalty. However, do not then assume that this is purely a fantasy masterwork. Indeed, the last series I can remember all readers recommending so heartily is "Lord of the Rings" by the great J.R.R Tolkien which for me is the highest praise indeed. This is a series that you find yourself recommending to everyone, even those who loathe the genre. The word 'epic' is too often applied to the fantasy genre as a whole yet this series has every fan of the genre screaming the word from the rooftops. "A Feast for Crows" is the fourth book in George R.R Martin's "Song of Fire and Ice" series. ![]() If you've not read the three earlier books you really should start with 'A Game of Thrones' - the first book in the series. Summary: This is the fourth in George R R Martin's epic 'Song of Ice and Fire' series and is highly recommended by Bookbag. ![]()
