Favorite/best and least favorite/worst ASoIaF book and why.

I personally thought "A Storm of Swords" was the strongest book, but "Clash of Kings" is my favourite. "A Feast for Crows" is arguably the weakest of the series in my opinion.

The Red Priest from that outlaw band resurrected her.

ASoIaF is literature last time I checked and we are discussing it.

well where the fuck did they go? weren't they at the start or end of one of the books. will they come back or did George just do it for the LULZ

The first one was the only good one. After that he added too many main characters and diluted the plot line; everything's just meandering bullshit now. They're entertaining, but not particularly good, like a rope that's too frayed to function.

GRRM is a hack bro

Last time we saw them was in AFFC when Zombie Catelyn is about to (not) execute Brienne.

the leader of the outlaw band was introduced vaguely in the mid point of AGOT and then not mentioned for an entire book before we met him again in Storm of Swords

favourite quotes?

>He found a line and pulled on it, fighting toward the hatch to get himself below out of the storm, but a gust of wind knocked his feet from under him and a second slammed him into the rail and there he clung. Rain lashed at his face, blinding him. His mouth was full of blood again. The ship groaned and growled beneath him like a constipated fat man straining to shit.

I basically realized this around half way through the fourth book

you need to check that shit again. ASIOF is a book, not literature. Literature implies some sort of artistic merit you PLEB.

well that's what I get for never finishing a feast for crows. dropped that pile of shit 400 pages in and just finished a dance with dragons. which also sacked balls

>>7834742
That bit where Tyrion says, "If you cut a man's tongue out you're only proving that you fear what he has to say," has really stuck with me.
>>
>>7834747
There were parts in A Feast For Crows and Dance of Dragons that bored me to death.

90% of AFFC is just people talking about being rich

I wish Danny would die

None of the books are good

They're all awful. The setting and characters are decent, they're just really badly written.

>>7836562
His prose is entirely average. It wouldn't be so bad if they came out at a decent pace. Fuck waiting this long for book 6. There is literally no reason it should have taken him this long.
