Now the acclaimed TV series Game of Thrones - the masterpiece that became a cultural phenomenon
Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen's brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister - the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind.
All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki - whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys.

The return to a pre-enlightenment world has something in common with the progress on to a post-enlightenment world (the singularity, or Clarke's Third Law: "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"). Reason and rationalism are not enough: to speak to our contemporary productive unconscious, more is needed. Christian moralism is not enough either. GAME OF THRONES is not set in a world of Christian values, and the narrative voice and structure are not Christian.
Polytheism of different sorts is the religious context of this world, and is an important part of personalities and outlooks. The characters in GAME OF THRONES are not demarcated out into good and evil, with only a tiny amount of ambiguity. They are ambiguous combinations of light and shadow, though the proportions do vary. The game of thrones itself is not one of establishing the rightful hereditary and noble king on the throne after vanquishing the Dark Lord, it is a game of power strategies and Realpolitik, with no final legitimacy.
So I would argue that along with the shift in our culture from the primacy of an SF metaphorics to a fantasy one, GAME OF THRONES illustrates and embodies the paradigm shift from a Christian monotheistic perception with its dualistic vision to a post-modern polytheistic perception with multiple points of view each having a certain degree of validity, and where dark and light are not separate and opposing instances (there is no axis of Evil in the human realm), but are distributed throughout the opposing sides. (The overwhelmingly evil Others exist, but their background presence does not transform the human realm into the site of crystallisation of good).
Je n'ai lu la saga qu'en anglais, mais compte jeter un oeil plus tard sur la traduction française, qui n'a vraiment pas dû être simple à cause du style quand même très littéraire de Martin.
Pour ceux qui chercheraient un roman pour améliorer leur anglais, celui-ci est approprié mais nécessite d'être déjà à l'aise avec la langue (et d'avoir la volonté de lire quelques 900 pages en anglais...).
Ce premier tome est d'une complexité déjà surprenante pour un début de saga, mais Martin sait disséminer ça et là ses infos de manière à ce que l'on découvre le passé historique du royaume de Westeros ainsi que sa culture, ses traditions, ses habitants au fil de notre lecture, comme un puzzle se reconstituant de plus en plus au lieu d'avoir une étouffante masse d'infos.
La force de la saga et ce dès ce premier tome est la profondeur des personnages, très nombreux, variés et particulièrement bien croqués: impossible de ne pas s'attacher à eux. Chaque chapitre porte le nom d'un personnage dont il adoptera le point de vue.
Le monde imaginé par Martin est également vaste et varié, et nombres de détails le rendent extrèmement vivant (détails sur des pratiques culturelles, religieuses, sur des évènements historiques, sur des légendes, etc).
L'intrigue tragique (au sens classique du terme) n'est pas en reste et offre suspense et stupeur. Dans ce tome 1 elle ne comporte que très peu d'éléments fantastiques (ils se situent essentiellement dans le prologue et l'épilogue) ou même épiques donc n'espérez pas de la fantasy pure et dure: l'intrigue est surtout politique et psychologique mais reste complètement passionnante!
Assurément un excellent roman!
ils ont pas mettez un bon fin a le series comme le fin nest pas encore ecrit!!!
donc ca vas etre un merveilleuse surprise
il faut le lire!!!
cest vraiment trop beau et vous avez les images de le series dans votre tete donc cest magick!
De grandes familles se livrent une lutte acharnée pour le pouvoir ou simplement pour survivre. Combat de chevaliers, Dames un rien naïves ou totalement folles, des bêtes monstrueuses attachantes, bref la recette parfaite pour ne vouloir que se mettre dans un transat et se perdre dans la saga sans rien faire d'autre. The winter is coming..

For me there wasn't much character development at all. I get there's A LOT of characters, but if I hadn't seen the series, then I would feel literally nothing for these people. Same goes for description of characters. There was too many names and important people to keep track off. I didn't feel any emotion from the characters. Especially when Drogo and Ned died. It was just like... Okay it's over now. Next chapter bye. There were times where I couldn't wait to read it, and times where I wasn't 100 percent sure I was going to finish it.
I made a promise to myself that if I was to write a book review id be honest. But I'm not denouncing this series. I'm actually going on to read the second book in the hopes that I do find I love it and hope that fans of the show (and people looking for an interesting read set in an incredible world) pick this up and give it a go. But it took me 3 attempts to finish this one. I
I gave it a three as for me, while I love the story and the world he had created, I couldn't get rid of the feeling that without the tv show, I wouldn't be able to put a face to a name or feel how the characters felt, which is something I've never had trouble with before.

I started this, then put it down and just didn't pick it back up. It remained like that for, what?, six-seven months before I picked it up again… and finished it in a week.
I loved this book so much. I think the reason it took me so long the first time 'round was because it was so freaking like the TV series (Gods, do I miss those days) but I pushed on and so glad I did, because there's just little things in the book that they didn't include in the show.
The characters in this series are just so… amazing. I love how well they are fleshed out, how pure their emotions come through the page until you're feeling it with them. I love that whilst reading a Stark chapter, you hate the Lannisters and everyone that sides with them, but then you read a Lannister chapter and you're like… wow, those Starks aren't exactly the best, are they?
You route for whoever you are reading. Sure, you attach yourselves to certain ones because it's still a piece of fiction and that's what you do with fiction - you mark your favourites. But there's no-one in here that's truly hate worthy… except Joffrey. He's just a little s***.
The magical elements are unlike most fantasy books I've read in the sense they're hidden deep down and haven't started stirring yet. I've already read the 2nd book and know that as the series goes on, the more magic comes out. And it's amazing that way.
There's not just one plot going on, there's a million different little ones, that somehow all steer towards the End Goal which I have no idea what it'll be because GRRM hasn't finished. But still! You can see plainly that whilst these little plots seem interesting in their own right, you reach a point in the book where you realise that because of that little plot, the entire story is blown open.
It's incredible. Simple incredible.

Although this is indeed a gripping story, it took a long time for me to gain momentum. In fact, twice I left the book alone for a couple of months and then started again, or backtracked through a few chapters. It was probably just past the halfway point in the book that I felt the pace developed and I was hooked.
The book's chapters are named after each of the key characters in the story, which I find adds an unusual sense of anticipation when you see which character's story is about to unfold. The curse of me coming to this book so long after it was written (would you believe the book is 20 years old already?!) is that all of the key plot-lines have been spilled through the TV show. I love the TV show, but I can't help but feel a sense of lost excitement, as I see the name of a character at the beginning of a chapter and think "I wonder if this is the part where he dies". Grrrr! Regardless of the self-inflicted spoilers, I've enjoyed this so much, I've already bought the rest of the books and look forward to ploughing through them as time allows.
The enhanced features in this version of the book are a pleasant addition but I wouldn't say they have been essential. There are audio narration clips scattered throughout the book, but after a while the novelty wore off, and I skipped many of them. The most useful feature, was the ability to click on a character name and to be taken to a summary in the book's appendix. This is particularly useful for this book, as it hosts a huge number of characters that are hard to keep track of. However, a more advanced version of this feature appears to be built into the Kindle's X-Ray feature, making the book's hyperlinks less essential.

A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin is one of the greatest first books in a fantasy series. The writing style is not to everyone’s taste, but I found it accessible and the language was beautiful. I could see and hear and smell the world of Westeros around me.
It is rare in fantasy books that the magic system takes such a backseat. This is a story about people, rather than magic.
Yes, there are some fantastical elements – some hinted at and the odd thing blatant – but it’s George R. R. Martin’s characters that make this book the great epic that it is.
There are quite a few points of view, all of which are exciting to follow.
Ned is too honourable for such a corrupt world.
Cat is fierce and fights well with her mind against the odds.
Bran, oh Bran, you poor thing.
Jon Snow’s story is a little slow, but his character growth will be interesting.
Tyrion is a favourite, of course.
Arya and Sansa are opposites in every way – Sansa may be a pain in the ass, but there’s a reason for that. Arya is so much fun to read! Her story is going to get so cool soon, I’m sure.
And finally, Daenerys is a great character full of potential – it’s great to see another side of the world; I think George R. R. Martin has balanced this out well.
In summary, this is an incredible read and I think it’s the only book these days that I would happily reread – I haven’t felt like that since rereading Harry Potter over and over again as a kid!
(POSSIBLE) SPOILER SECTION
To kill of a main character like that was brave, but it worked! Ned was a favourite, but Martin did a great job of making it so that we knew he had done everything he could.
A man like Eddard Stark could not live for long in a world as hostile and corrupt as Westeros – it just doesn’t fit in with the rules.
The squabbling sisters, Arya and Sansa, seems to be more of an introduction to their characters and a set up for them having their own, main plotlines further into the series. Now that they are splitting off, I’m excited to see what will happen with Arya and Sansa is going to have a hell of a time at Kings Landing.
Cat is going to want revenge for that. If she responded to Bran’s “accident” by abducting a Lannister, what will she do now Geoffrey had Ned executed? This also leaves Robb, a young man – a boy – at the head of the Stark family, so he’s got big boots to fill well before his time.
Tyrion is so much fun to follow! I can’t wait to see more of his wit in the next book. He’s going to get stuck into the politics and shake things up a bit.
Daenerys has her dragons! They’re only babies, so I’m sure we’re going to see more of her struggling for now. She has a lot to get done before she can fight for the Iron Throne.

The cover may have some limited signs of wear but the pages are clean, intact and the spine remains undamaged. This book has clearly been well maintained and looked after thus far.
When l got the book it was filthy. It had coffee stains and general grime spilled on the cover. The bottom of the book had a wedge torn out of about 50 pages, going the full length of the pages.
Delivery was slow to boot. First time lve used this seller, awful experience
