Uh, yeah, haha. It's... well they don't shy away from violence or gore. I agree with whoever posted earlier that when you read it though, it's worse, because you are left with your full imagination to create the pictures. It's why my "reading" is entirely from online summaries and stuff haha. It still tells you how people die but quite briefly, and I can quickly keep moving (since it's a summary) so I don't have to dwell on it very long hahaha. The worst yet IMO happens in I think book four? Tyrion kills somebody and GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS. Can't handle it.
