are the game of thrones books suitable for a 13 year old?

This series has extreme violence, torture, horrors of war, sex, gang rape and mature themes that are not suitable for children. Its a great series, but is certainly not for children. I recommend 16+, though a mature teenager at 14-15 could also handle these books on a case by case basis ...

In the books, Margaery's starting age is 16. Her age on the show, currently, is probably around 21 or 22 — though it's unclear. Apparently, Game of Thrones creators were so impressed with Natalie Dormer's portrayal they decided to up her age in order to cast the actress, who should be just 18 on the show.

I don't think the books are hard to read in general… For first few chapters of the first book (A Game of Thrones), yes. ... I think the part where the books may come off as being hard to read is regarding the themes, inner meaning and foreshadowing. It is relatively easy to understand the story at face value.

The publisher lists the target age as 9 to 13 years old, but we think 9 to 11 is more accurate. While our 12-year-old still enjoyed the series, she admitted she would have liked it more in third and fourth grade, as opposed to sixth.

Who is Lyanna Mormont? Lyanna Mormont was the 13-year-old head of house Mormont, a Northern family located on Bear Island. Though she appeared in under twenty episodes, Lyanna became an integral player in the rather literal Game of Thrones.

Robin: As Persepolis follows the years from age 10 to 14 for Marjane, I do believe that this is a title that would engage 12- and 13- year old readers.

Age in the books: At the start of the books, Jon is 14-years-old, only a few months younger than half-brother Robb. He's roughly seventeen when he's elected as the 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. In the show, as per HBO Jon is only 7 months older than Daenerys. They are both now 22 years old in the show.

Although the recommended reading age is 13+, I first "read" them at the age of ten (I was very good at skipping over long descriptions and poetry).

It's about a southern girl who lives in a town full of mishaps and the supernatural. These books are not suitable for younger children. They are definitely for 18 and older.

It's not a difficult read. There are a great deal of characters, but not too many to keep track of as long as you remember who belongs in which family (Baratheon, Lannister, Stark and Targaryen). Most of the characters outside those 4 families are secondary and not terribly important.

I honestly would not recommend Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker to kids younger than age 7-8. That PG-13 rating is more accurate depiction than The Force Awakens rating or even The Last Jedi.

4. The game is rated for teens :::: If your child is over 13 years old, they are in the ideal demographic for the game, and should most definitely be allowed to play it.

The show has Arya at 18 whereas Gendry doesn't have a definite age. In the books he is five years older than the youngest Stark, making him 23 years of age. As Game of Thrones pairings go, that's a very reasonable age gap.

They are absolutely worth reading but keep in mind that while the series is done, the books are still 2 novels away from being finished and may never be complete. I think they're better than the show -- at least the first three are.

Simple answer is yes. The reason for this is that a 13 year old likely weighs between 40–60 kgs and can usually safely: Jump.

Not by a long shot. However if you're a big fan of fantasy in general they're cornerstones. Out of all the Shannara books I've only read The Sword of Shannara and the four books that comprise the Heritage of Shannara series and they are really, really good. ... I really like those books and recommend them often to friends.
