Nicholas Oh please. The character interactions are anything _but_ complex. I think too many people are prone to mistaking verbosity for complexity, and this book is a fine example of that.

Matthew Williams I disagree entirely. I've read the whole series and not once have I observed "verbosity" taking the place of character complexity or complex interactions. If anything, I've found the interactions of Martin's characters to be highly in-depth and layered, taking into account fealty, rivalry, hierarchy, competition, ambition, and even a little compassion from time to time.

Goran Tamburic I AM SICK OF THIS - George is not a writer he is screenwriter and bad one in that!Such story should never have more than 3 books and that means he wrote all unnecessary waste of paper for Many!You never write for a many but for your soul!This is all Harry Potter many machine Trash for uneducated masses!!!Yukio Mishima is a genius writer and artist.In his short story of 50 pages Patriotism that is one of the most powerful short stories ever written, he tells more than George in his entire life!!!STOP BRAINWASHING PEOPLE!!!

Solomon Asserting that he is a "master writer" is a mistake on your part and shows your bias based on your appreciation of the work.

Its okay to say that some readers won't appreciate it, but asserting that he is great regardless of anyone's opinion is foolish.
