A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire, #4)
 
Summary:
 
Crows will fight over a dead man's flesh, and kill each other for his eyes.

Bloodthirsty, treacherous and cunning, the Lannisters are in power on the Iron Throne in the name of the boy-king Tommen. The war in the Seven Kingdoms has burned itself out, but in its bitter aftermath new conflicts spark to life.

The Martells of Dorne and the Starks of Winterfell seek vengeance for their dead. Euron Crow's Eye, as black a pirate as ever raised a sail, returns from the smoking ruins of Valyria to claim the Iron Isles. From the icy north, where Others threaten the Wall, apprentice Maester Samwell Tarly brings a mysterious babe in arms to the Citadel.

Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, victory will go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel and the coldest hearts.

I will find no help here. As Brienne mounted up again, she glimpsed a skinny boy stop a piebald horse at the far end of the village. I should not have talked with that one, she thought, but he vanished behind the sept before she could seek him out.

    1. If you love epic fantasy but want something that's got a historical fiction flair I highly recommend them. I'm hoping to have the series done by the end of the year.

  2. OK I always have to comment when I see Martin's books pop up. :) Brienne's story was interesting in this one, I was curious to see what would happen after her and Jaime came to an understanding in the last book. Hope you're liking it...

    1. I watched seasons 1 and 2 before I read the book (although I owned it before season 2 came out and it was recommended to me when I was 16). I really recommend it. Lots of violence and swearing and nudity lol (for both the show and the books)

  5. I am reading this book now (listening to it actually). I am so excited that it is shorter than Storm of Swords.
