Just finished #AClashOfKings earlier today, and that was a good read. But, I am already excited about my next book: #ACityOnMars
I am not the fastest or most avid reader of books, but for keeping track of my reading, current, previous and want to read, I use #Bookwyrm - it is part of the #Fediverse. Check it out at, https://bookwyrm.social/

I'm sorry, I should explain.

My last line was NOT meant to be a #dig at #ChinaMiéville. It's meant to be a dig at how #BLOATED #fantasy and #sciencefiction became since the 1990s.

As a young adult, I got burned out by #RobertJordan's #WheelofTime, THEN made the mistake of starting #GeorgeMartin's #Asoiaf (a mistake I corrected by putting down #AClashofKings halfway through).

In the 1970s, #MichaelMoorcock proved you could write epics in less than 200 pages. A lesson I wish wasn't lost.

Vamos con el siguiente!

I finished #AClashOfKings the other night and so it's onto my next #Book.

#HowToGetRidOfAPresident by David Priess.

Looks to be a lighter read than some of my other Presidential books, and that's okay.

I usually go with the book version over the show, but I think I found an instance where the show does it better.

Tyrion before leading his men out during the Battle of the Blackwater.

The book quote goes is follows: (next post).

Won't lie. Getting through Arya chapter 4 in #AClashOfKings was hard work. It's a deeply troubling chapter that's full of death, torture and rape.

For a series that's known for that stuff, I found this particularly challenging. Bonus points for the murder of a small child whilst it's mother looks on. It's a no from me.

Can't seem to get into anything at the moment, so I'm going to spend what's left of my evening working through my #AClashOfKings re-read.

As with the first reading, some of the point of view chapters are significantly more interesting than the others. I could read Davos and Tyrion all day and not get bored...Dany and Theon, not so much.

I’m reading A Clash of Kings and I’m realizing how many changes the series made and how those changes weakend the story. Sure, they kept a lot of the important stuff, but so many of the smaller details that make the story make sense were gone. The book so far is also much more enjoyable for the parts that were drastically changed or omitted - like when Danaerys visited the House of the Undead and how she got there.

Selyse Florent is such a force of nature in the book in the most obnoxious way. Absolutely shocked Benioff and Weiss would diminish a women’s agency lol #aClashofKings

Maester Cressen was a real one, really risked it all to save his boys #aClashofKings
