The story is interesting but the writing seems raw and unedited, lacking a good visual description of the multitude of characters, and overly detailed about other more trivial elements. The Game of Thrones TV show is worth a look though.

With a refreshing narration style, a large and fascinating cast of characters, this epic saga will appeal to fans of historical and fantasy stories alike. It can be a bit tough to get through the first chapter, but once in, good luck getting out.
