Download A Game of Thrones: A Song of Ice and Fire: Book One Audiobook

" Good book, gives you the show with more details. "

" Gripping, shocking, haunting. Nothing sums up the suspense better than "winter is coming" often mentioned throughout the book. "

" The best fiction book I have read in a a year! "

" I watched the HBO series first, and then I read the book. I think this (achronological) order was a good choice for me because when I read fantasy novels, I often feel overwhelmed and ultimately give up because I have trouble remembering all the characters. By watching the series first, however, I was able to track all the different characters because I had a picture in my mind of who they were, and I had little difficulty following the long and winding plot because I had a general idea of where it was going. Therefore, my reading experience centered on the hidden nooks that either weren't in the show or, if they were, I had forgotten. I was also able to give some of my attention to the writing, which I enjoyed and is probably what I'm looking forward to most in the next book. "

" Slow going for me at the beginning, but once I had characters and places figured out it was really intriguing. Can't wait to start the next one! "

" Enjoyed thoroughly, would recommend reading. "

" Never has a book taken me so far! I was totally absorbed and stopped living to let place to my imagination to take over. Wonderful work! "

" Very good read with unexpected twists and turns. Having multiple perspectives is a new take on this genre. Definitely worth all the hype. "

" A great start to a series of books that became a bit hard to read later on, mostly because of too many characters and stories and a few other things. "

" My favorite fantasy series of all time. "

" Vazne dobra kniha. Necakala som, ze sa mi tak zapaci. "

" Too dark and harsh for me. I don't do zombies. "

" First I did some binge watching of season one and then read the book. Thoroughly enjoyable, but since I had just seen the series it followed the book so closely, was a touch repetitive. Now on to season two! "

" So excellent!!! I cannot believe I waited so long to read it. This might be my new favorite series...ever. "Winter is coming." "

" Definitely an entertaining read, but a bit daunting to get into at times. "

" Not for everyone, due to the graphic nature of the writing, but a really amazing story. "

" I finished this book in a week and it was amazing. Such intrigue, action, adventure and suspense... It is a beautifully written story, that swifts delicately from teller and one doesn't get bored when it changes of perspectives. "

" Densely plotted, with a slew of memorable characters. Not the most beautifully written of books, but the immense scope of the story more than makes up for that. "

" Thanks to my co-worker, Erin, I have been sucked in to starting this series. Thanks, Erin! I'm not sure I'd call it Fantasy, although there are some fantastical elements (creatures, magic). It is like an alternative medieval universe soap opera. "

" slipcased autographed edition #129. I really love this series. "

" One of the best books I have read in a long time. You get hooked right away. There's fantasy and political intrigue, wonderful characters, and a totally new world to dive into. "

" This time refreshing with an audiobook version, read by Roy Dotrice. A good way to make the fun last longer... "

" WOW complicated. Love all the characters, their depth, their flaws, their fighting. Can't wait to read more. "

" Amazing book! Great start to an incredibly gritty series! The characters are fully fleshed out, as is the world of the 7 kingdoms. Fast paced and just brilliant. The series only gets better! "

" Soap for men - politics, sex, violence and characters with no complexity. Occasionally entertaining in a sordid way. Same goes for the TV show. "

" This book will magically take you to another place. It is exciting and captures many elements of Medieval times......honor, pride, revenge, etc. I am very eager to read the next installment of this series. "

" 4.5 stars - very well written, with complex political intrigue and an sense of looming dread as the book goes on. Pretty dramatic finish, as well. Can't wait to read the next volume! "
