Description of the book
ONE OF THE TIMES’ 25 BEST AUDIOBOOKS
HBO’s hit series A GAME OF THRONES is based on George R. R. Martin’s internationally bestselling series A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE, the greatest fantasy epic of the modern age. A GAME OF THRONES is the first volume in the series.
Summers span decades. Winter can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun.
As Warden of the north, Lord Eddard Stark counts it a curse when King Robert bestows on him the office of the Hand. His honour weighs him down at court where a true man does what he will, not what he must … and a dead enemy is a thing of beauty.
The old gods have no power in the south, Stark’s family is split and there is treachery at court. Worse, the vengeance-mad heir of the deposed Dragon King has grown to maturity in exile in the Free Cities. He claims the Iron Throne.

- Excellent book, 2nd time I've reread it now.

I actually prefer the early book narration compared to the later books where everyone sounds like a pirate.Book★5

- The accents were not on point for me, after a while you do get used to it though

- the accents are really weird in this and it takes you out of the story, tyrion goes from southern to yorkshire to irish in only a few chapters
