Crows will fight over a dead man's flesh, and kill each other for his eyes. Bloodthirsty, treacherous and cunning, the Lannisters are in power on the Iron Throne in the name of the boy-king Tommen. The war in the Seven Kingdoms has burned itself out, but in its bitter aftermath new conflicts spark to life. The Martells of Dorne and the Starks of Winterfell seek vengeance for their dead. Euron Crow's Eye, as black a pirate as ever raised a sail, returns from the smoking ruins of Valyria to claim the Iron Isles. From the icy north, where Others threaten the Wall, apprentice Maester Samwell Tarly brings a mysterious babe in arms to the Citadel. Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, victory will go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel and the coldest hearts.Present Regarding Books A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire #4)

I feel like giving this book 3 stars is being harsh to my man, George Martin, but I'm trying to separate the truly great books in this series from the merely good ones.Bottom line: fans of the series waited too long for this and therefore were in a position of being impossible to please once this finally came out. This coupled with the facts that numerous spoiler chapters had been available online for years and that George cut his original manuscript in 2 to produce this and the subsequent (asWhew, this is a tough book to review simply because it doesn't follow on the expectations of the readers after A STORM OF SWORDS. Now some people are already saying that the book is horrible and a great letdown and others go to the other extreme and hold faithfully that it's just as good as the previous books.

How do you follow up after an epic throw down, a no holds barred monster truck rally demolition derby Hulkamania caged grudge match? By doing something different.George R. R.

Theres a whole lot of nothing in this one. Cerseis chapters are excruciating to read. Thats not surprising considering she is probably the least likable of characters
I didn't like this as much as the others. Still a great book.
A Feast for Crows was quite good but its far below the incredible standard set by the previous three books.Ive mentioned in my previous review that A Storm of Swords could truly be the height of Martins writing career and I still stand by that statement confidently. Unfortunately, theres a huge chance that this book will be the other way around by being the lowest point of the series. Theres a lot of circumstances to consider here. If Ive waited 5 years before I read this book, I definitely
