GAME OF THRONES (book review)
SYNOPSIS:
After the long summer, winter approaches the Seven Kingdoms. Lord Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell, leaves his domain to join the court of King Robert Baratheon The Usurper, a wayward man and a daring warrior, whose greatest interests are eating, drinking and breeding bastards. Eddard Stark will play the role of Mano del Rey and will try to unravel a tangle of intrigues that will endanger his life and that of his family. In a world whose seasons last for decades and in which remnants of an immemorial and forgotten magic emerge in the darkest and most marvelous corners, betrayal and loyalty, compassion and thirst for revenge, love and power make the game of thrones a powerful trap that traps the characters in their jaws ... and the reader.
If you already saw the series and you have not read the book yet, do it. You will be as enamored as you are in the series. And if you have not seen the series yet, read the book.
One of the main attractions of this story is medieval environmentalism, which gives way to a series of rustic and rebellious customs and attitudes that were allowed at that time. Without taboos, here everything goes.
Song of ice and fire is a story that makes your reading fluid, a feast for the eyes, with a rise and fall in the direction of events that always leaves you with the thirst to want to know what will happen, making it difficult to stop reading. As for the characters, we find an indefinite protagonist, as most of these play an important role for the reader making a kind of pleasant suffering (it is difficult not to be attached to a character, a situation that is not recommended for a plot in which all they want to dig with each other).
To be a book with a variety of characters, the author does not fall short to give them life.
Each and every one of them have very strong personalities and really of very good quality, of those who transmit their attitude with just a script; the way of speaking, the actions and the gestures, all very well described in a way that almost spontaneously and without forcing anything, everything flows naturally.
Sometimes it becomes too descriptive, but only in some cases. The rest could tell me that I loved the characters, followed by a plot that was not left behind.
