I missed the epilouge after affc on my first read. (Just didn't flip far enough back to see it) and all I can say is daaaammmmnnnn

"No they were the bones of a child"

Drogon is getting rowdy and can't can't control her dragons. That's not good.

I think there are such a thing as spoilers for a book that is yet to be released....even in a "I read the book" thread.

How many threads are gonna pop up after the release? Everyone's gonna be cursing the speedreaders and skimmers.

Luckily I read pretty fast. I'll probably read it in two days or so.

I am going to do the same thing I did with the Potter books: Basically read it in one sitting and not go online till I am finished.

Loved his little note at the end of AFFC and how he said ADWD would be ready in about a year from then. Not so much.

Here's a somewhat recent article on it: Just Write It!

Werthead from The Wertzone has compiled a sort of "the story till now" summary. I've only read the first part so far, but there's quite a bit that I don't remember from the books. The info on the Doom especially. I take it he's been following the Thus Spake Martin postings pretty closely.

(I'm assuming this is all accurate, I have quite a bit of faith in Wert. His website is an excellent source for reviews and recommendations for Fantasy/SciFi.)


Part 1

Part 2 The Dragon Kings

Part 3 Thrones and Kings

That guy is pretty much as close to canon as you can get.

Robert is a descendant of the Targaryean line (great grandmother or something) and had the better claim, that along w/ the fact that I doubt Ned would have wanted the throne.
