A Feast for Crows Review and Discussion Questions


http://g33kgirlz.com/2012/03/the-stark-family/

Again, there is no possible way I could review A Feast for Crows and do it justice so here are a few reviews that try.  As always, beware the spoilers.

Discussion Questions
  • This book and A Dance with Dragons are really two parts of the same (giant book).  Did you like that GRRM split the books by narrator?
  • Do you think that GRRM is getting swamped by the sheer number of characters he has in these books?  In this book alone, we have 9 new narrators.
  • Cersei has spent most her time in the other books trying to get power, but now that she has it, she can't really handle it.  Why do you think that is?
  • Do you think that Jon had Samwell's best interests in mind when he sent him to be a maester or is he thinking of the Watch?
  • Why do you think the Brotherhood without Banners brought Catelyn back to life?
  • Every member of the Martell family has their own plans.  Which one do you think is the best?
  • Why do you think the Faceless Men gave Arya the milk that caused her to go blind?
  • Why do you think is Jaime worried about his honor now?  He has turned his back on his family to do so.
  • Who, as a narrator, do you miss most in this novel?
