I know its a wonderful series on television - and I really enjoy the language and engaging characters. BUT BUT BUT... . it's a bit too gruesome for me. My greatest complaint with the first book was that it was a bit gruesome and all my favorite characters were killed off. Not so many main character deaths in this one but just as horrific. Officially after the second book - not my cup of tea. That said - the writing is wonderful and I may be back when I'm ready for a mega-long read.
