Rating 10/10I knew this was going to be good because everyone I know who have read it raved about it. But never did I expect it to be a masterpiece. I have only given one other book a 10 out of 10 (Pillars of the Earth) but this epic novel joins its ranks, if not trumps it.The characters are so rich, so detailed and twists and turns make you gasp at every turn!I can't even begin to go into the story; there are so many points to discuss. And I think this is a novel that can keep any book lover up till late in the night.What I loved about this book is how nobody is sacred, your favourite character can get killed at a moment's notice, your most hated character can become an ally and finally children can and have to become adults.I feel that after this, the bar has been raised. A novel has to really do a lot to get into my 10/10 list.I could go on and on about how fantastic, amazing, brilliant and even thirst quenching this book was, but you will only know if you read it yourself.Read more: http://lusbookblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/review-game-of-thrones.html
