A Clash of Kings? (no sp)

[passthewine]

I'm reading this book now and not loving it quite as much as AGOT. I think it feels a little slower just because so much of it is the war.

I was just wondering if the rest of the series is more like AGOT or slower like ACOK? I'm not giving up either way, I just want to know what I'm in for.

ASOS is better. Probably the best of the series. Then 4 and 5 just okay, IMO. Somewhere between AGOT and ACOK.

I read it so long ago that I actually don't remember which book is which, but I remember liking the first 3 overall a lot better than #4. I did think that each book had its fast and slow sections - George is a rather verbose author.

I agree. SOS is definitely worth making it through COK, it is the best of the series IMO.

I also agree.

Thanks everyone, I feel like COK has picked up a bit. As much as I love these books, they just take me forever to read.
