Game of Thrones pt. 2

So I have finished the first Game of Thrones book: A Game of Thrones, real creative, and the second book: A Clash of Kings which I absolutely loved. As I mentioned in my earlier post about Game of Thrones the author, George Martin, does a great job of balancing action and plot throughout the story allowing him to travel back in forth between characters and time without missing details or action.

In the second book the empire splits and has 5(6 can be debated) kings at one time. This leads to civil war in which 2 of the kings are killed and a third,the main character's, is left without soldiers. Following that there is a army larger than any their kingdom has ever seen marching from the north to take over their country in it's weakest hour. This has created for a very dramatic and action packed book. I am looking forward to the 3rd book.
