imrath's review against another edition
There's already plenty of people on the internet who have gone into detail about how atrociously bad Roy Dotrice's narration is, so I'll just say that's why I can't finish this, though the sunk cost fallacy almost made me persevere. If I ever re-read this series I'll have to pick up my actual books again.

I never thought I would enjoy these books as much as I am. After watching the tv show I thought that the book would feel very long and boring, full of detail that are not important to the plot, but I was wrong. I am super excited to keep reading and to (re)discover everything that is going to happen to these characters.
P.S.: The editions that I bought are (probably) not the best - they are pocket size. I'm reading in a group read and for the first book I've read three of my books, so I feel that the story is cut in weird places and my reviews are never complete.

Oh boy... It was amazing! This was a reread, so I was afraid I'd get a little bored, but I feel like I liked it even more! Every (main) character grew on me and I missed all of them so much... I still need to finish the second part, as my edition is 1-in-2 but I can't wait to read all of them <3
