1 - A Game of Thrones

Readers of epic fantasy series are: (1) patient--they are left in suspense between each volume, (2) persistent--they reread or at least review the previous book(s) when a new installment comes out, (3) strong--these 700-page doorstoppers are heavy, and (4) mentally agile--they follow a host of characters through a myriad of subplots. In A Game of Thrones, the first book of a projected seven, George R.R. Martin rewards readers with a vividly real world, well-drawn characters, complex but coherent plotting, and beautifully constructed prose, which Locus called "well above the norms of the genre." Martin's Seven Kingdoms resemble England during the Wars of the Roses, with the Stark and Lannister families standing in for the Yorks and Lancasters. The story of these two families and their struggle to control the Iron Throne dominates the foreground; in the background is a huge, ancient wall marking the northern border, beyond which barbarians, ice vampires, and direwolves menace the south as years-long winter advances. Abroad, a dragon princess lives among horse nomads and dreams of fiery reconquest. There is much bloodshed, cruelty, and death, but A Game of Thrones is nevertheless compelling; it garnered a Nebula nomination and won the 1996 Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel. Chaptered. Unabridged. Read By: Roy Dotrice ------------------------------------------------- Visit us for this and loads more more: www.audiobookvault.ws -------------------------------------------------

Question: does this go past the point that was portrayed in the series? I don't want to know what happens after the dragons hatch until season 2 begins.

Enjoying this audiobook greatly, although there is a second soundtrack running in the background in some chapters (chapter 65 Arya for example) with a male voice speaking backwards. No idea what it is or why it's there, but it is. It's really low though so you can't hear it while Dotrice speaks.

The second soundtrack running in the background is very irritating
