PhilSyphe | Oct 1, 2023 |  This is the first of the series I've read where I preferred the tv treatment. The detail in this one gets ploddy at times, and it's unremittingly dark and grim. Even the dwarve's humour seems forced. Plot twists? Yeah, it's got that in spades. And yeah, it makes up for all the above. (  ) furicle | Aug 5, 2023 | DNF (  ) Briars_Reviews | Aug 4, 2023 | This has been my favorite installment of the A Song of Ice and Fire series thus far. It has not one but two ill-fated weddings, a farce of a trial, escaping prisoners, giants riding mammoths, and the increasing magic in the world is bubbling to the top. Many of the characters I wanted to see gone died finally, OR new intriguing facets of their characters were revealed, à la Jaime Lannister. Some characters even came back to life! So far I'm rooting for Jon Snow, Arya, Tyrion, Jaime, and Brienne of Tarth. If I wasn't so busy, I would start reading the next book immediately! Great stuff!

 With the end of A Storm of Swords, Martin is half finished his epic. However, so little has been revealed that we have only begun to glimpse what the true saga really is. It's as if you are peering through a dirty window, cleaning small portions of it -- one square inch at a time -- so more and more of the room beyond is slowly revealed. Each glimpse uncovers a new wonder, but you can never be sure of exactly what you are seeing.

Like with the previous novels in the series, ‘A Storm of Swords’ hooked me from the get-go. Like the second book, this third one features many differences to the TV series. This makes no difference to the intrigue, drama, or excitement.
The characters are vivid, the plot threads engrossing. The multiple third-person specific narratives work well. Tyrion's, Jon Snow's, & the three Stark children's narratives are particularly good.
I can't pick any faults with the story but did find several style aspects annoying. For instance, stating that someone ‘looked annoyed' or 'looked surprised' is blatant 'telling', which, with little effort, could've been revised to 'show' the emotion.
We also get too much of characters who ‘could hear’ and ‘could see’ something or other. It's obvious in most cases that the characters in question can see and/or hear what's going on, so to inform the reader that someone 'can see/hear' something is a waste of words.
Despite the above style criticisms, this novel kept me engrossed too much for me to rate it below five stars. A magical read. (
