A Song of Ice & Fire by George R.R. Martin: Book Discussion Thread

HBO is trolling show-only-watchers:

Here is the pre-show recap for the Season Finale. I hope this doesn't get posted in the show thread because it will give people a few days to ruin the Stannis surprise

[Peter Parker]

Targaryens, like the other dragonlords of Valyria, incorporated dragons to their own bloodline by using blood sacrifice. That's why Daenerys' dragons are more inclined to like people with dragonlord blood in them. Targaryens have dragon-like characteristics; they are short tempered, proud, and have a resistance against fire.

The First Men did the same thing. They used blood sacrifices to incorporate the children of the forest into their blood. First Men are more children of the forest-like than the Andals; they can warg and greensee. The Starks, however, are different. The Last Hero we heard Old Nan talk about is not Azor Ahai, but the first Stark; when the Others finally got to him, he agreed to make a truce with them and bound his bloodline and that of the Others to eachother by using blood sacrifice. The Starks resemble White Walkers in many ways; they are cold blooded, cold eyed, lean, and have a resistance against cold. Ghost, a direwolf, is the only animal that is not frightened of wights. The direwolf is the sigil of House. Bonus: Craster, who sacrifices to the Others, is White Walker-like as well; Dywen says that there is a cold smell to him.

Jon is the mix of dragon blood and White Walker blood. A song is not multiple melodies fighting for dominance, it is a harmony of different melodies. Jon's task is to restore order to the forces of ice and fire.

God Damn, they took the surprise out of Damn near everything but with the show-only watchers they mainly don't remember two episodes ago.

my nikka, I personally think you should've gotten the kindle editions for cheaper, because everyone has a smartphone and you can just read off your phone and whenever you come past an archaic word(WHICH THERE WILL BE A LOT OMG) you can just highlight it and it'll tell you what it means, expand your vocabulary and read at the same time

But regardless

I had a phone when I read the series but now I got an S3 and I'll remember this post.

Or maybe I'll just buy a tablet instead (is it worth it?) and load books on there.

I mean tablets aren't for me personally, I guess they're a cheaper buy than laptops but I'd much rather sit in front of an actual computer and if I had a tablet I wouldnt take it outside my house out of fear of losing it or it getting stolen

It's all about personal preference, my mother has a tablet and she loves it though

Does the 2 minute recap count towards the run time of the episode? Will we get 64 minutes instead of 66? Matter of fact does the end credits count towards that as well? I hope not
