[Nicholas · Rating 3 out of 5]

An enjoyable and informative exploration of the philosophy of the warrior, enhanced by references to our favourite and not so favourite characters from HBO`s TV series based on the novels of George R R Martin.

My only major complaint concerns the all too frequent grammatical errors that interrupted the flow of the book and could have been avoided with a further edit.

Nevertheless, a thoughtful, at times, inspiring read.

Bought this for cheap at a Renaissance Festival. It was fine, but not well written or very deep.
