 Science Fiction Book Reviews
As Martin explains in an afterword, the parallel events in the lives of these protagonists will be narrated in the forthcoming volume, A Dance with Dragons.
The magical "wonders" that too many bad fantasy novels have made stale are here used sparingly, while Martin returns to a kind of amped-up William Morris focus on the affairs of the human heart in a time and place where deeper, darker passions ruled.
As an old savant says, "Dead history is writ in ink, the living sort in blood." Martin is definitely employing the latter medium; thus his pages breathe and caper.

Chiron is the largest of a group of cometary bodies, strayed from the Kuiper Belt, collectively referred to as the Centaurs, all of which have their orbits in the outer solar system.
In the context of this series of books, however, we will call Chiron a planet, as it is a commonly accepted term for Chiron amongst astrological circles.
The ramifications of this unequal transit of the zodiac signs are explored in later chapters of this first book, as are the ramifications of eccentricity and ellipticity of planetary orbits in general.
