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

[Ramsay Bolton]

Just read the Reek chapter in ADWD

It rhymes with "leek"...

So Martin said he's writing episode 7 of season 3 entitled "Autumn". I think we can guess what's going down on that ep.

Doubt it. He said that he had such a hard time writing that chapter that he completed the rest of the book first and then went back and wrote it. Doubt he wants to write it again. And the producers said its their favorite part of the series so they probably going wanna write it.

 

[NUPE 1911]

5 book taking place in less than a year

Arrya being going from on Cornu place to another for five fukking books and achieving nothing

100k dothraki just running around doing nothing for 4 books

killing Rob and Catleyn like that.

the dragon not growing or doing shot until book 5

to no end in sight

killing some great characters and leaving a lot of corny ones

killing khal drago

This man has a point...

I think they should've kept Jon's storyline the same as the book. Jon fighting Qorin to the death and Ghost showing up just in time to save him would've made for some good TV. Oh well.

 

[MidniteJay]

Oh lawd, I feel sorry for all dem nigs in the TV series thread representin' for the Starks. All the L's Robb is taking.

It can still go down. Qorin told him to make sure the other crows didn't die for nothing

they gonna commit that when "that thing" happens season 3

and people are gonna be even more pissed when they see the character that resurrects is Catelyn

It can still go down. Qorin told him to make sure the other crows didn't die for nothing

Yeah, it seems Qhorin is trying to set things up for his Obi-Wan Kenobi moment with Jon.

"That part" will be the season 3 season finale....

 

[The_Sheff]

Did they ever say why Robert fukked Stannis over after he became king?

 

[Black Magisterialness]

"That part" will be the season 3 season finale....

yeah book 3 is gonna be split into 2 different parts...good too because its too large a book to compress into 10 episodes

i can't wait to see the reaction threads

Robert was the oldest and led his own rebellion.

 

[The_Sheff]

Robert was the oldest and led his own rebellion.

Im asking why he gave Storm's End to Renly instead of Stannis when Stannis was the one who held it for him.

Oh sorry....

Nah it was never really clear. Stannis was always the better military mind and did what was practical but Robert was just an a$$hole

But I haven't read the first book in a while.

Dragonstone and the islands around it were the biggest loyalists to the Mad King and Robert wanted someone strong to govern them and watch his back.
