There are certainly a lot of characters and a lot of backstory, but that's Martin's style.

I am a fast reader, but you've convinced me to........ give up.

Backstory's no problem, nor, normally, is a lot of characters - but these aren't characters, thy're just bunged in to fill up the pages, to my mind.

Nah, I think, on reflection, Ron is definitely on the money.

I feel a bit annoyed now, that I actually went to 5 - which I speed-read at least half of anyway.

That's me lot, mate.
