Okay so after a 12 year gap I've finally decided to start my A Song of Ice and Fire re-read. Only difference between now and 12 years ago is that I have two kids, so I imagine this might take a while.

So, I'm reading A Game of Thrones. I'm only a few chapters in, but I've already fallen in love with G.R.R's writing style. The first few chapters have so much work to do to set the world up, but he handles it so well it's almost unnoticeable when a character is delivering a lore dump.

Just started re-reading Peter Hamilton's "Judas Unchained", it's the book that got me into SciFi so I'm quite nostalgic about it.

Really enjoyed that back in the day when I was looking around for other books to scratch my Culture itch.
