Hi amylou
I haven't read ice dragon but the game of thrones series might be a little too adult. There is a lot of sex, violence, and just all around lousy behavior. Plus, Martin irritatingly kills off many of the favorite characters to a maddening degree. I am currently torn about the new book, I want to kow what is going on but I am so annoyed that it took so long I don't want to buy it!
My view, it's for high school at the earliest, but if she has read other stuff with Intense violence and sex, it is pretty good.
