An epic adventure/fantasy series by George R R Martin. I hesitate to use the word fantasy by the way. It seems, so far at least, more like an historical, dynastic tale with some fantastical elements.

Anyway, I've just started the second book, A Clash of Kings, and I want to yap about it as I read it.
So here's my little thread which will more than likely contain spoilers aplenty as it trundles along.
Anyone else (apart from nymeria and Theo) read it or intend to read it? See, I'm being inclusive here.
