This video is mesmerizing. I suppose the person with the lighter is real life "fireman" as Bradbury envisaged the term!

I just read this myself and I strongly recommend it. Even better than The Martian and the ending is superb!

The IT cover is almost on par with the Jurassic Park logo. In a world where the term "iconic" gets abused, this is one instance where iconic is absolutely warranted.

I enjoyed this book but the last death toward the end went just a little too far for my taste. Great tension and very well written, though!

Same, although I don't know if anyone can capture the political complexity of ASOIAF. Even George doesn't seem to be able to recapture that magic.

Even damaged that cover looks great! The burned out P is clever and immediately gives off a mysterious vibe.

George is a genius but I feel like the first three books were a firmly plotted trilogy and the next two just don't have that structure to their story.

I just want to say that's a great title for the book. Feels like I spend 99% of my life on side quests🤪

Same here, as Ferris Bueller would say, "Life comes at you pretty fast." Oh wait that dates me to way back in the 1900s 😂
