Thanks, man, but they are just blank for me. Could it be because I'm on a Mac?




Possibly I guess


I really have no idea. I use Adobe digital reader.

Its just wanting to make more connections to the Targaryans. Tyrion is Lannister throughly. This isn't like Jon Snow where we know that there were suspicious circumstances surrounding his "aunt's" death, as well as a promise. Tyrion is pretty well accounted for. Plus there's no way in hell Aerys would be dumb enough to let Tywin into King's Landing if he did that to his wife, especially since it would mean his spawn killed her.


Not saying I disagree with you, but the Tyrion is Aerys' son theory is also based on a little story told in ADWD. Since you're on Feast for Crows, you wouldn't have read it yet.

But yeah... it seemed pretty clear that Tyrion is totally Tywin's kid from the first three books.

TD Knight of the Laughing Tree Thread - Spoilers!!!!! - Dunk and Egg Tale LINK


Here is a link to the LINKS for the Dunk and Egg Tales. It was in a previous thread that I bookmarked.

BTW: Lyanna is the Knight of the Laughing Tree. And she dies at the Tower of Joy because she was involved with the fight, not because of Jon's birth.

Disagree.

GRRM has used the term bloody bed entirely too many times for it to be used any other way now. Ned would've never let her fight and the three kingsguard would've never actually fought her.

There would also be no reason for that not to be public knowledge.

Sorry, meant Aerys. Edited to avoid confusion.

ETA: From Wiki of Ice and Fire:

According to Barristan Selmy, Aerys lusted for Joanna Lannister, something that caused further friction between the King and his Hand. At the wedding of Tywin to Joanna, Aerys drunkenly japed about how it was a pity the First Night tradition was banned and took certain liberties in the bedding ritual when the men at the feast had to disrobe the bride.

- See one of Dany's chapters in ADWD.

Now of course, I viewed this as a throwaway and perhaps a little shout out to the folks with the Tyrion Targaryen theory. Others have inferred from this section that Aerys took it upon himself to bed Joanna. (Of course such a bedding would have occurred much later in time).

Again, I don't buy the theory, but that's what many point to as additional support.

Alright, can someone help me get the files from my PC to a Kindle? I've only downloaded things directly to the Kindle. Any help transferring them?


Look like The Hedge Night may have issues. I think the other 2 are good to go. Carson RandomNumbers, did you check all of the attachments?

I'm not going to speculate on any theories, but it would be damn nice to get Howland Reed POV chapter. He seemingly has knowledge that would put a lot of this to rest. The fact that he is a small badass would be nice to hear about too. The majority of the kickass characters in ASOIAF are huge, besides Tyrion. It would be nice for Martin to give some love to the little guys.

Well, there's Arya and Meera (she's not really kickass though)...but I get what you are saying.

Figued it out. Just plug the Kindle in via the USB and go to the Amazon website. Click on "Manage My Kindle" and you can drag and drop files.

I doubt we ever get any POV chapters from him I just want an appearance.

I think GRRM has said in an interview that there won't be any major new POVs but I can't find that interview now so I could be wrong

I just downloaded a program called "Calibre" that will allow you to convert an epub and send it to your Kindle (or other device). Pretty cool program. Amazon does not allow you to do this. Obviously they don't want you to be able to use your Kindle to read content you didn't purchase through them.
