Few books have captivated the imagination and won the devotion and praise of readers and critics everywhere as has George R. R. Martin’s monumental epic cycle of high fantasy. Now, in A Feast for Crows, Martin delivers the long-awaited fourth book of his landmark series, as a kingdom torn asunder finds itself at last on the brink of peace...only to be launched on an even more terrifying course of destruction.
A Feast for Crows
It seems too good to be true. After centuries of bitter strife and fatal treachery, the seven powers dividing the land have decimated one another into an uneasy truce. Or so it appears....With the death of the monstrous King Joffrey, Cersei is ruling as regent in King’s Landing. Robb Stark’s demise has broken the back of the Northern rebels, and his siblings are scattered throughout the kingdom like seeds on barren soil. Few legitimate claims to the once desperately sought Iron Throne still exist—or they are held in hands too weak or too distant to wield them effectively. The war, which raged out of control for so long, has burned itself out.
But as in the aftermath of any climactic struggle, it is not long before the survivors, outlaws, renegades, and carrion eaters start to gather, picking over the bones of the dead and fighting for the spoils of the soon-to-be dead. Now in the Seven Kingdoms, as the human crows assemble over a banquet of ashes, daring new plots and dangerous new alliances are formed, while surprising faces—some familiar, others only just appearing—are seen emerging from an ominous twilight of past struggles and chaos to take up the challenges ahead.
It is a time when the wise and the ambitious, the deceitful and the strong will acquire the skills, the power, and the magic to survive the stark and terrible times that lie before them. It is a time for nobles and commoners, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and sages to come together and stake their fortunes...and their lives. For at a feast for crows, many are the guests—but only a few are the survivors.
George R.R. Martin sold his first story in 1971 and has been writing professionally ever since. He has written fantasy, horror, and science fiction, and for his sins spent ten years in Hollywood as a writer/producer, working on Twilight Zone, Beauty and the Beast, and various feature films and television pilots that were never made. In the mid 90s he returned to prose, his first love, and began work on his epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire. He has been in the Seven Kingdoms ever since. Whenever he's allowed to leave, he returns to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he lives with the lovely Parris, a big white dog called Mischa, and two cats named Augustus and Caligula who think they run the place.
最早看过的涉及骑士文明的书,是《三个火枪手》,应该正好是整整十年前的事。记得主角叫达达尼昂,以及三个同伴(当时还很好奇为什么书名是以主角的三个朋友命名,而不包括他自己。。。)。记得当初对于这种文化有诸多惊奇,比如对仆人的态度,比如决斗的习俗,比如女性地位的...
评分蓝礼的幽灵 大家瞧不起蓝礼,我是不奇怪的;觉得蓝礼得了天下未必保得住,我也是不奇怪的。然则如此多人一口咬定即使史坦尼斯没有祭出影子杀,蓝礼也不可能坐上王位,这就真真怪哉了。蓝礼麾下实打实的十万大军在某些人的脑补中就是一阵烟,吹一口就能散了,全书最大的金手指...

评分一堆看不下去的PDF之后,Kindle找到了新方向和使命....还从来没有一本书看得时间跨度超过两年...由于是拆成两本,密集看到cersi jamie的视角真是有点看不下去了,Sam的部分更是直接跳过....结果第五本还要长,赐予我力量读下去吧。。。
评分春秋战国,礼崩乐坏,民不聊生。被摆了一道,思念缺席者,好在游历异域(南地风光,隐忍芬芳的血橙;海怪岛风暴将起;刺客之家,感谢马丁安置苦难赋予arya的戾气勇气,给她童话般新开场),野心宽广。瑟曦唱主角,几本冰火真就是她的露怯过程,残忍而不可自视,因此不理解人性,与侏儒弟弟相反;她未曾从那个命运与男权主导的帐篷里走出来。詹姆持续怀疑与羁绊,我想他可能,并非不幸地,永远找不到最后安宁。老人逝世孤女新生,都是抛却一切后认清自我本源,留下匕首,回到无忧无虑城邦。牧师视角揭露黎民情状,小小一篇却悲悯难得,所以有此本题目,全城的乌鸦,都向大人致敬。“复活”是牛逼意象,乱世多出怪力,本质是秩序崩塌,你背叛礼义,我背叛不可一世的死亡。写对话妙趣横生,英文真有趣!所以老爷子搭了小八百页的戏台,何时才能开演呢
评分看了后面忘了前面,镜子的记忆力伤不起啊。
