I have read 2-1/2 of the 5 GOT volumes, and I need to move on from Martin right now. I probably will come back, but this was a bit too much, one after another. I will say, that Martin spends a tremendous amount of time on scenes and sets, and yes, there are a lot of characters and plot lines, but it became challenging for me to keep track of what is happening to whom. I don't watch the HBO series, so I just need more time to immerse myself in the work.
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.
