723 p. Took me longer than the previous ones. The author decided to do a 2-parter and put half of the characters in one book, and half of them - to the next one. Not sure if lack of Daenerys had something to do with my slow reading

This was my first introduction into the GoT world. I‘ve never seen the series or read the books but really wanted to check out the graphic novels to dive into the universe. This book did an awesome job of setting up the world and introducing the start of the story line that will become GoT. Definitely a great starting point for anyone new to the world or for anyone that wants the backstory!

While obviously a first novel, this is the book #GRRM should read! It shows historical “realities” without glorifying rape and torture. Finally, a book about men and women in power, their political intrigue, and the consequences of personal vendettas on a nation where women can and will use their limited power for themselves and their families. 4/5 stars, read if you like #GoT, but demand less rape. Set in Ancient Rome with gods granted magic.

Leftcoastzen Awww 🥰 so beautiful! 🐶 5y
iread2much Also like stupid GRRM, the author leaves off on a cliff hanger and hasn‘t even started on the second book. 😡 but it ends well, even if the shifting narratives where very irritating and I really wanted to focus on Latona, it is a great real politic novel; set in a well imagined world, with limited magic that doesn‘t make everything easier. 5y

Leftcoastzen Sounds like an interesting read. 5y
iread2much And this book is all about women using their power and trying to navigate the gifts from the gods. The main character is constantly told to control her power, is feared for her power, abused for her power, and must decide how and if to use it. So amazing it‘ll find that story finally written. I wish this book got as much coverage as GoT 5y
iread2much @Leftcoastzen it was! The first few chapters are a slog, but they get better as the book progresses. I really enjoyed it and I hope to see what you think if you read it 😄 5y
