A Game of Thrones

[DanaC]

I never made it through to the end of Jordan's stuff. I lost the will to live quite early on.

This though, I dunno. I had the audiobooks and couldn't gel with them. I think I'd probably have liked the reader more had I not seen the tv series first.

I intend to get them in paperback. The high death count doesn't really put me off. I made it through the first two chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever. I have stamina :p

The death count isn't an issue other than all the main characters are being axed. Quite the opposite, the higher the better (Joe Abercrombie). I have not thought about Thomas Covenant in a very long time... I read only the first book, back in the mid 1980s.
