A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire book 1) by George R.R. Martin 819 pages
A single death sets this plot into motion. The hand of the king has died, and King Robert journeys north to recruit his friend Ned Stark to serve as his new hand. A Game of Thrones is a who-done-it story of intrigue and a truly epic fantasy with detailed characters and world building. Don’t worry if a hundred pages in, you’re still confused. It’ll all be worth it when you can argue online with strangers about what actually happened.
