Absolutely loved A Game of Thrones - the book, that is.
I have just moved onto Clash of Kings, which has started really well. As a writer myself, I feel enthralled when reading Martin's work. It's almost effortless writing, and i'm seeing new words used all the time. Like, all the time, without the usual obvious use of a Thesaurus. Such a talented writer.
Random question, but does anyone know why AGoT has page numbers, and ACoK does not? (Kindle users only)
