### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The story of our time
*by S***. on March 20, 2017*

"Some say the world will end in fire,Some say in ice.From what I’ve tasted of desireI hold with those who favor fire.But if it had to perish twice,I think I know enough of hateTo say that for destruction iceIs also greatAnd would suffice."“Fire and Ice”Robert Frost, 1920George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire is the story that we need to heed right now.Yes, this is a series with all of the trappings of high fantasy: including knights, fair maidens, sorcerers, giants, and dragons. But unlike most works of the genre, the tropes don’t allow a satisfying escape from the frustrations of the modern world. Instead, they help readers explore character motivations, cultural norms, and political predicaments that speak to our own experiences in life.Martin is well read in history, and many details in his books are inspired by real events and peoples from the Middle Ages. Despite his attention to detail, reenactment is not what motivates him to tell his tale. When discussing his priorities as an author, Martin has repeatedly paraphrased Faulkner, saying: “the only thing worth writing about is the human heart in conflict with itself.” Indeed, the characters of the story are often challenged by wrenching moral dilemmas, and the choices they make have powerful consequences for their lives and the lives of others. The historical details are a means to teach us about ourselves, and about humanity at large.Accordingly, the conflicts of the story are not just internal. War and political skirmishes feature prominently in A Song of Ice and Fire, as they have in human history. Martin has cited Robert Frost’s poem “Fire and Ice” as an inspiration for his series, and its vision of destruction at the hands of human passion and cruelty epitomizes the challenges faced by the people of Westeros and Essos. Martin himself is a conscientious objector who considers most of the wars of history to have been unnecessary and disastrous ventures. His pacifism is not absolute (he has stated that some wars are necessary, such as World War II), but he nevertheless thinks it is important to consider very carefully the costs of war, without minimizing the spectacular power that military pageantry can have on a people.The titular “ice” and “fire” subtly evoke our collective capacity for rage and desolation, but more obviously they serve as the framing supernatural conceits of the series. Like in many horror stories, the people of Martin’s otherwise realistic setting are caught unawares as inexplicable forces awaken to encroach upon their safety and normalcy. Unlike most horror stories, though, this supernatural presence enters in the midst of heated squabbles, betrayals, atrocities, revolutions, and escalating warfare across the human world. The question that the series lays down is: can we ultimately look beyond our deep grievances and band together against the forces that threaten us all, before it is too late?The central threat is introduced at the very beginning of the story: a mysterious race of beings slowly moving from the permanently frozen lands of the North into Westeros and beyond. Unlike the buggers of Ender’s Game, these are not misunderstood victims of a prejudiced perspective; these are inscrutable, cruel beings capable of extinguishing all life and warmth from the earth. Yet for most of the chapters of Martin’s novels, “the Others” remain but an ominous suggestion, blithely dismissed as a story until it is too late.As this doom approaches, supernatural forces are stirred throughout the lands, allowing certain individuals to foresee future events, to inhabit the bodies of other beasts, to raise the dead, and (representing fire) to awaken living dragons. The people of Westeros and Essos react to these phenomena much as we would react to them: with disbelief, horror, or with religious awe. Yet these spectacular forces do not help any characters in their quest to save themselves from the coming apocalypse—in many cases, they introduce more problems for those who wield them than they do solutions. What can ultimately save the human race from complete obliteration is not any mystical power or prophecy, but a moral vision to unite disparate peoples against the forces that threaten stability from within and without, and the courage to act upon that vision. This is the central human challenge.Given the enormity of this challenge, the scope of the story is necessarily massive. Martin has an extraordinary gift for portraying how factions converge and clash, and how societal and ecological factors shift and interact over time to create a roiling stew of chaotic cultural systems. But, importantly, the feel of “A Song of Ice and Fire” is intimate rather than omniscient. Each chapter provides events from only one character’s perspective, in a tightly limited third person style. From each point of view, internal thoughts are explored, as are memories, dreams, and visions. Martin uses this grand mosaic of subjective snapshots to establish how well-meaning people can end up committing terrible deeds (knowingly or not), how information is easily distorted, ignored, or used to feed competing moral narratives; how the present is haunted by the past; and how the personal realm feeds the political. The ruminative, reflective approach lends a sense of tragedy to the cataclysmic events of the story, rather than simple sensational drama.And, of course, the richly realized lived experiences of these characters often challenge the cliches of epic fantasy and hero narratives. Such subversions are not for the sake of postmodern cynicism, however, but instead to highlight what Martin thinks we humans should be lauding as heroic in a world as epically complicated as our own.The struggles of life can be bleak, confusing, and seemingly without end. Those who persevere in the face of crushing adversity or numb uncertainty are not always rewarded for their actions, but their efforts are important all the same. A Song of Ice & Fire is a poignant hymn of praise to the brave souls who have looked past their everyday human struggles of pride or power and fought for something far more precious. Life. Hope. Stability. A viable future for the coming generations.Also: love. And compassion. And kindness. The TV adaptation never really gets into that.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must Read Fantasy Series
*by A***V on May 2, 2014*

I really wish they would call these "A Song of Ice and Fire" but besides that, I cannot say too much bad about these books.For the readers of this review. I am not going to go into much if any book detail, I am simply going to explain who might like the books and why you might want to read them, along with some of the challenges.Firstly these are long books, everyone of them. They are not for somebody looking for a 250 page novella or novel, and they are not great stand-alone books. As a series they introduce, and remove, dozens of characters and plot lines. It is actually kind of amazing at how Martin was able to weave so much of this together. If you read the first book, you will undoubtedly need to read the second which leads to the 3rd and so on, they are that good.To go with the length, the pacing needs to also be talked about. I feel that the books are pretty well paced. They are not overflowing with boundless amounts of action, but there is enough to keep you interested if that is what you are looking for. Political intrigue runs deep and takes up huge chunks of the story line, which is really what makes things so interesting. The plans behind plans, behind plans, behind plans are what these books are really about. Yes the action is there and pretty realistic most of the time, but the politics and social and cultural world that Martin has created is what sucks you in. This is truly a fully-fleshed series, that although it has some cookie-cutter pieces (middle-aged, swords and dragons, magic) it really does not depend on that nor does it really use that as its identity. The identity of this book is real human emotions based on real human decisions and the realities of the world we live in and that Martin created. He did not have to dream up some mythical world that, by its sheer existence is awe-inspiring. He did it by just simply showing what humans are capable of in a pretty familiar setting that just works with the books.One major challenge is keeping certain characters straight. You start to kind of realize who the major players are, but more than once I would almost need a memory jog on who somebody was or why they were significant to the story. It can be overcome, but there are many many many characters, some minor, some like a medium-minor, some important, and others very key to the story. If you keeps these straight though, it is worth it.He has some magic but it is more of an undertone really, and has not played much of a part through the 1st 5 books. It is there and may eventually play a bigger role, but up to now it has been minor in most cases (few exceptions).I would recommend this book to somebody who really wants to dive into something deep and immerse themselves in the world Martin created. It will suck up many hours of your time and you will hate that you have to wait for the final 2 books, but when it is all said and done you will be happy you read them. I loved reading these in the winter, especially scenes beyond the wall and in Winterfell. That almost made me lose myself in the story more to be physically surrounded by snow and reading about it in the book.As an aside I think the tv show is very good as well and really does a pretty good job of capturing most elements of the book. I would say though, that even if you watch the show before reading the books, you will still get a great experience from each book.
