Game of Thrones is way too violent for me
Precisely why I can't really appreciate the Game of Thrones series... :/ There's no doubting how talented a writer the author is, make no mistake! But it's just not my cup of tea, that sort of violence and stuff... :(
before any of the series you mentioned (except possibly the Chronicles of Narnia), I prefer - Anne McCaffrey's Pern series - Lloyd Alexander's Prydain Chronicles - Gordon Dickson's Dorsai series - David Webber's Honor Harrington series - E.E. "Doc" Smith's Lensman series - Frank Herbert's Dune series - Robert Asprin & Lynn Abbey's Thieves World shared world series - Robert A. Heinlein's Future History "series" - Isaac Asimov's Foundation and Robots series - Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series
Probably several others that don't spring to mind immediately.
