I've started reading the first George R.R. Martin book, A Game of Thrones.
It took me about a hundred pages to get used to the style, the setting, the back story and the characters but now that I'm starting to know them, I'm having a hard time putting the book down.
I'm trying not to like the characters too much, because I know Martin has a reputation to kill off a lot of them, but they're making it difficult. Oh, Bran! And Robb! And Jon!!! And Dany, and Arya, and, and, and.
*flails*
Also, a quick question to the tech-savvy among you.
Does anyone own a Kindle?
And if so, theoretically, is it possible to buy a Kindle on AmazonUK or AmazonUS and then buy Kindle books from either of these sites, when living in continental Europe?
