It's still a great series, and still worth reading, but IMO, the series seemed to have peaked with A Storm of Swords. Here is how I would rate the books:

A Game of Thrones = A+
A Clash of Kings = A
A Storm of Swords = A+
A Feast for Crows = B-
A Dance with Dragons = B-

I'm still a big fan but I hope Martin ups his game in future novels.
Oh man. Still looking forward to Dragons, but your review lowers my hope just a wee bit. Maybe GRR is overthinking too much and losing track of his own series. giggle

I just hope that he doesn't completely lose track like Stephen King did with the Dark Tower books.
