"Of those who work in the grand epic-fantasy tradition, Martin is
by far the best.... [He] is a tense, surging, insomnia-inflicting
plotter and a deft and inexhaustible sketcher of personalities....
This is as good a time as any to proclaim him the American
Tolkien."—Time Magazine
"The only fantast series I'd put on a level with J.R.R. Tolkein's
The Lord of the Rings…. It's a fantasy series for hip, smart
people, even those who don't read fantasy…. If you're new to the
series, you must begin with Book 1, A Game of Thrones. Once you're
hooked…. you'll be like the rest of us fans, gnawing your knuckles
until book 5”—Marta Salij, Detroit Free Press
“THE MOST impressive modern fantasy, both in terms of conception
and execution, is George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.… A
masterpiece that will be mentioned with the great works of
fantasy.”—Contra Costa Times
"Long-awaited doesn’t begin to describe this fourth installment in
bestseller Martin's staggeringly epic Song of Ice and
Fire."—Publishers Weekly
"Grabs hold and won't let go. It's brilliant."—Robert Jordan

out."—Anne McCaffrey
