A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin Book Review (NO SPOILERS!)

[@thefantasynuttwork]

What is your opinion of book one of A Song Of Ice and Fire? What are your favorite quotes and characters?! *Bran wanted to be a knight not a king :-)

[@ItsmeJARULE]

Super good book and great opening chapter. I will say my favorite chapter is when is the fight in the street between Ned and Jamie

[@thefantasynuttwork]

It was definitely a great scene in the book and show!

[@gut.6925]

This is the book that started my love for fantasy and books in general. Martin is one of the greatest in the genre

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Same here. GRRM reignited my love for reading and will always be my all time favorite/ greatest of all time for me. Thanks for watching!!

[@02amh]

thanks your videos motivated me to buy the this book after watching the show, even bought the illustrated edition to really set the mood

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I love that edition

[@mich7008]

Just finished the first book and as you would say “ LET’S GO!!” Oh my gosh Jimmy. Having reading nothing but fantasy the last two years I cannot believe I’m just getting to this. The last Chapters of this book had me setting it down and jumping to my feet SCREAMING HELL YEAH!! I went over to the live stream you did with Liene and Alex and learned some things I probably didn’t need to know yet so I may wait until I catch up to go back and watch. I really don’t think I’ll be watching the screen adaptation though. Love your stuff brother

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Thank you my friend! This is my favorite series of all time for this very reason.

[@mich7008]

Jimmy, I just finished “the red wedding” chapter and it’s changed me!!! OH MY GOSH!! I couldn’t sleep last night after I read it. Pressing on now … just wow!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@mich7008 best fantasy book ever!!!!

[@donnybuoy]

Finished A Game of Thrones for the first time today, it also being my very first high fantasy novel, and it is already one of my favorite novels of all time. Complex, intriguing, rife with betrayal and morally ambiguous characters (my favorite kind); I was enrapt from start to finish. Can't wait to read the rest of the series!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

This makes me so happy

[@MsWillowbayOrelse]

The audiobooks are good as well. Some of us can't read for very long so audiobooks are the way I "read". It can really ruin a book if the audiobook isn't done well.

[@curtjarrell9710]

I attempted to read this several years ago but it failed to capture my interest. I'm ready to give it another shot, which I hope to do later this year.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Hope it works for you this time around

[@steliosgrimpas]

The first book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series is one of my favorite books in the series, it has the best prologue ever, it's the best first book in a series!!! My favorite pov character is: 1. Jon 2.Ned 3.Daenerys 4.Tyrion 5.Arya And my favorite quote from book is “When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground”. Cersei Lannister

[@thefantasynuttwork]

One of my favorites ever

[@c.d.3298]

Thank you for the great review! It's been a while since I've seen the final season when it came out and like many, I was a bit disappointed in the ending so I never really bothered to read the books. Then yesterday, I picked up the first book for no particular reason and can't believe I'm already 100 pages in. Thank god I waited 2 years so I could forget some of the plot, hope I can rewrite my memories now with the books haha Haven't read fantasy since Harry Potter but this might actually get me hooked again!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

It's an amazing series with some stellar writing. I hope you enjoy it as much as I!

[@curtjarrell9710]

Hi Jimmy. I'm reading this now and this time I think I'm ready for it. It's fascinating so far. I hope I can keep the characters clear in my mind.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@curtjarrell9710 enjoy the ride!

[@joshuahearn2388]

I've just picked this book up, I've never been much of a reader at all but so far, it's a winner.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

So happy to hear that

[@Shaad2321]

AsOIAF is my favorite books of all time! If you love it the you should read moontide quartet by David hair similar type of alo of characters politics and. Also one of my faves!!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I will add it to my list, thanks for the recommendation!

[@donaldedwards3997]

I tried watching the hbo series a couple of time before finally finishing it a couple days ago. Actually watched the the firts two sesaon of house of dragon before GOT. Started reading the book last weekend. Love so it so far. The book is big but it is an easy read.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@donaldedwards3997 love hearing this

[@thatsci-firogue]

Lately I've been tempted to do a re-read of the series but maybe once I've finished up on a few other fantasy series but I'll be starting with the Dunk and Egg novellas which I've never read before

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I love Dunk and Egg as much as the main series and mystery knight is some of GRRMs best writing IMO

[@mike_reads_stuff]

Nice job fine Ser! My favorite book of all time!! Bring back the acorns, please🥺. 🌰🌰🌰

[@romanpearce3949]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE A GAME OF THRONES!!!!!!! And will you be doing the other a song of ice and fire books???

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Eventually yes 😃

[@tariqulislamakash5749]

Loved the review

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Thanks! Was my first review ever on the channel. I'll be reviewing the rest of ASOIAF late this year or early next

[@Syko1985]

Favourite book and favourite series of all time, but you only rate it 4 out 5 stars on goodreads?

[@thefantasynuttwork]

My older Goodreads are all off, I'll be updating them eventually

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I also gave it 4/5 in the video but that's definitely because this was my first video ever and hadn't really considered my review system as much. Looking back I'd give it 5/5 because it's probably one of the best book ones ever written

[@Syko1985]

@@thefantasynuttwork absolutely, and for me this book is definitely a 5/5 but some people grade books more harshly, which is totally fine. It was just a genuine question btw, I apologise if it came off kind of rude. Glad I found your channel, some great reviews 👍

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@Syko1985 oh no you're totally good 😁 I've been wanting to redo my Goodreads for a while now and I always think about how I shouldn't have given it a 4 in the video haha not rude at all 😃 Glad you're liking the channel, eventually I'd like to do some more ASOIAF content!

[@tarandeepsidhu6812]

Still a good read if you have seen the show?

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Absolutely!!!

[@aqueenchi117]
