I have just finished A Clash of Kings by George RR Martin. I will move on to A Storm of Swords tomorrow.
It's so frustrating not being able to go anywhere on the internet to discuss these books for fear of spoilers. It seems that most forums on the internet have a Game Of Thrones TV thread ("No book spoilers!") and possibly a book series thread ("Discussion for people who have read ALL the books!") But where can a person discuss being at a mid point in the series? I'm having to avoid ALL promotional material for A Dance With Dragons, in case it passively spoils anything in books 2, 3 and 4 by setting the scene for book 5. This is why I can't even afford to read back-cover blurbs. I'm a slow reader, so it's going to take a couple more months before I can check out the thread for the book series. It's a lot of work.

hi SquekyGibson,
have you considered audio books? It might speed up the process a little for you - and mean you can resume normal life ;0) Joanne |

I borrowed Retribution Falls from the library out of the curiosity after you mentioned it the other day, and I look forward to having a read of it soonish.

I'm reading John Dies at the End , by “David Wong", (not his real name), which according to the front cover, is "soon to be a major movie!"
I do hope so, because it's brilliant.

Deadline, sequel to Feed by Mira Grant. Yet another zombie book, because I just don't have enough nightmares about zombies. And the first one was really good, conspiracy and murder in a post zombie apocalyptic world, mostly told through blogs.

After reading through all the Dunk & Egg novellas, I have finally this morning started A Dance with Dragons; 'bout frickin' time... looks like I'll be finishing it three weeks after half the internet at this rate, so I will be treading carefully for a while!
