A Feast for Crows

"Of those who work in the grand epic-fantasy tradition, Martin is by far the best.... [He] is a tense, surging, insomnia-inflicting plotter and a deft and inexhaustible sketcher of personalities.... This is as good a time as any to proclaim him the American Tolkien." Time Magazine

"The only fantast series I'd put on a level with J.R.R. Tolkein's The Lord of the Rings . It's a fantasy series for hip, smart people, even those who don't read fantasy . If you're new to the series, you must begin with Book 1, A Game of Thrones. Once you're hooked . you'll be like the rest of us fans, gnawing your knuckles until book 5 Marta Salij, Detroit Free Press
