There are some shining moments in Aegons Conquest and The Dance of Dragons. I've read 5/7 of the book and can't get past how there's nothing to gain from this read. All you get is the surface level 'what' in what could be a marvelous tale. It's the opposite of what you want in a 700 page George Martin book. This isn't a novel, this is a telling of a fictional history from 2 accounts that conflict each other in a not so interesting way.
