A Feast for Crows
I have given 5-stars, I think, to the first three in this series, but have to cut my rating for this, the 4th book. Martin had to cut the originally planned fourth book into two, and divided the larger volume into "A Feast for Crows" and "A Dance with Dragons," not by cutting in the middle of the plot, but by separating the books by the cast of characters. I'll admit that most of my favourite story lines are missing from "Feast," but I also found that the plot fell to a plodding pace for much of this one, which was a shock after the amazing pace of book 3. Onto book 5 now, which is restoring my faith in the series.
