Young Griff is really Rhaegar Targaryen's trueborn son with Elia Martell that was supposed to be dead.

I want to reply to this but it would involve theories and would also spoil the stuff you havent read

Long story short, I think they can easily cut it out and have little effect in the main story. I think he initially seems like a game changer but really isnt

I will get it eventually for posterity. Gonna be nice having them all together on Google play books too so i can delete all these pdf's

It's kinda funny. I think you upped all of the PDFs like a year back, and they've been sitting on my PC ever since. I couldn't bring myself to read the stories in a PDF, so I preordered the book like 6 months ago :heh:

I just started reading through it now, and I can tell that I'm going to love it.

its fantastic, highly entertaining. Dunk the lunk, thick as a castle wall. Its easy reading, and the stories are rewarding, dont leave you going through all the different emotions the ASOIF does

What did you think of the Ironborn/Greyjoy plot/Feast in general?
And the first Reek chapter?

Question about the Wall. If it's supposed to be magic and protect the 7 kingdom from the Others then how were the 2 brothers that attacked the Old Bear able to be resurrected since they were on the other side of the Wall?

No what I mean is the same way the 3 eyed raven's cave entrance is protected, I thought the wall was protected by the same magic. So I thought that would prevent the dead from coming back to life if they were on the other side of the wall.
