George R.R. Martin Action & Adventure Novels Editorial Review
The Song of Ice and Fire: A Game of Thrones Series #1 Paperback by George R.R. Martin is a fast-paced story that is set in a medieval world filled with political intrigue, lust, and sordid affairs. It is a fantasy novel for discerning adults, and the traditional fantasy elements serve more as adornments than the raison d'etre of the book. Martin's style is to alternate the point of view by character in each chapter, thus depositing the reader directly into the world and practically making the reader a participant in the plot. The book leaves many unresolved issues that make the reader want to immediately begin the next book. The world is filled with prominent families, including the Lannisters, the Starks, and the Targaryens, playing their game of thrones, fighting for control of the Seven Kingdoms while north of the Wall that is guarded by the Night's Watch, unusual things are happening. The cast of characters is diverse and compelling. Martin creates characters that are compelling within a page or two, but that continue to grow and develop throughout the story. The book has three primary plots: the machinations at the court of the king, the defense of the kingdom from a nearly mythical threat, and the plot of the descendants of the previously deposed king to reclaim their throne from a land across the sea. The locations are built with enough attention to detail to inform without overwhelming; information dumps are kept to a minimum, and the plot itself drives the narrative.
