And since a lot of that 114 pages is taken up with contents, blurbs and so forth, the reading sample itself was only a chapter plus a bit of the second. Just as an FYI.
Since I hadn't read it in awhile, I just checked the sample for Game of Thrones and it is 88 e-book pages and includes the prologue, the first three chapters and a good bit of the fourth, which seems large to me for a sample.
