A review by biteintobooks
De strijd der koningen, by George R.R. Martin

5.0

I'm such a big Game of Thrones fan! I LOOOOVEEEE the series and after reading the first book, I couldn't wait to read the second one.
These are slow books, because the writing style is very detailed. I have to give myself a little pep talk before reading these books. Once I'm into these books, I'll rush through! The first book was even more detailed, you get to know the houses, the characters and the world. This second book contains more action.

If you like Fantasy, adult books and are not scared of a lot of pages, you should pick up this book. I wouldn't call it slow, I would call it describing, which is exactly what this book needs. I did read this book in my native language (Dutch), because I think I wouldn't be able to follow in English. I hope to read the third book before the end of this year. Can't wait for more action, deaths, plotting and romance.
