The fifth book in A Song of Fire and Ice.
Well, that happened. All five books since August. I would be lying if I said this installment wasn't a little bit of a let-down, but I'm sure a factor of that is also having read them all back-to-back-to-back until I'm trying to use Westersoi words on SpellTower and then getting supremely annoyed when they don't work.
But you know a book isn't very good when you sneak four very different graphic novels in during that span and don't quickly turn to it during lunch... although I did read the final pages while walking home, because it seemed silly to have to wait those seven minutes just to read a couple of paragraphs.
It feels good to be let back into the rest of the world, to lay down this three pound book and hope that I forget my indifference to this particular section of the story when the (hopefully better) sixth installment comes out.
