ASOIAF is a brilliant story, but I'm still finding it a little complicated in terms of people, the houses they belong to and who is siding with who. Having said that, I do sort of speed-read books on their first outing because I'm just bursting to know what happens next. I'll re-read them and pick up on a number of things missed previously (I did the same with Farseer/Tawny Man)
Farseer, for your son's sake, I hope he doesn't get like me and find he can't put the book down, unless absolutely, totally necessary! Keep us posted on your foray into Twilight when you get there. I'm always interested to hear folks views on this series, as opinion is very much divided!
'thul, I also found the last Twilight book the best one. This 'True Blood' take on vampirism is different again. 'Synthetic' blood is available in shops, bars etc. And...certain organs still work effectively! Now, that's a first for me in vamp literature!
