I read the story, I believe the story will also appear in a "The World of Ice and Fire" book written as a history of Westeros from a perspective from a maester. It's written mostly by the creators of Westeros.org who Martin uses as his go-to guys for any questions on the world. However GRRM has...

I'm not too sure about theories about tiny details that an author is going to find difficult to recall such as "remember that one guy that showed up for a sentence 3 books ago...that was him!" but a lot of them stack up. I haven't read the gravedigger one not sure about that but the Frey pies is...

I still feel like the first three had a bit more closure. I think he'll finish it relatively fast never the less I abhor people talking about a person's potential death with such tone of entitlement.

I got the Lands of Ice and Fire the other day. It's easily the nerdiest thing I've ever bought. 12 giant maps (too giant) of the world. It goes further east than the maps in the books and shows where places mentioned like Asshai is. I liked Dance with Dragons as far as the story goes but as a...

Took me too long to figure out Abel was Mance. :confused:

I think snow will be resurrected by melisandre after she realizes that he is the person she's been seeing in the fires as azor azai (?) reborn. There was a quote where Mel was trying to look at the fires for stannis but could only see snow. I've got a feeling snow's death will drag on, all his...

I'll confess right up that I'm not a big reader so my criticisms may be way off but it seems like both AFFC and ADWD were both suffering from being stuck in the middle of the septology(?). Storylines needed to progress but GRRM ran out of pages to do it because he had to set up so many others...

I will definately check it out but apparently the first 3 stories are going to be collated into one book. Might wait for that rather than chase down compilations.

Just finished all the books. Hard to see how all the storylines will tie up but that's what makes it so fascinating. Affc is definitely the worst in the series because of its mixed pacing but dragons was a massive improvement. I heard that grrm has given the producers of the tv show an...

I didn't really think there was a villain in 1984, that's what made the book so frightful. It was just the crushing social and political situation itself and the fact there was very little hope that was so frightful. O'Brien presents a sliver of hope but turns out to be part of the machine.

Joffrey Baratheon certainly and the guy who plays him on the TV show is awesome, especially considering he's only a teenager (probably). Gregor Clegane as well I suppose. However there is no black and white in the novels. A lot of the villains look pure evil until they are fleshed out with...

I remember a few years back in high school, having to do book reviews and and/or having to read books. I got some really crappy novel about some guy who plays for Fremantle (or at least a ficticous WA side, you could tell it was freo though) and it was horrible. I think it even had a sequel. I...
