As was I. I come from a future where A Song of Incest and loving has grown out of control like lovely kudzu. Also, The Winds of Winter never came out.

And yet, the Wangs of Winter somehow fills this void.

And I want to point out that according to GRRM in the ADWD prologue chapter 'Warging' is only when the animal/recipient is a wolf.

So when the eagle guy was doing it they called it...

Earging?

How does this work.

I'm planning on reading the combined version of the last two books having never read them separately, is this a bad idea? I spoiled myself a long time ago but will I gently caress up the reveals and poo poo if I do this?

I think the only way to move things along more properly is if you read them while on the toilet.

I like to imagine the real twist is that Benjen threw on a blue cloak and climbed back over the wall after he was last seen setting out. We are gonna link back up with his PoV chapters as another bored old man in Dorne sitting under the sun and talking about how much nicer getting to use his dick is than guarding some frozen icehole.

so yeah grrm writing and editing these wildcard books no sane person would ever read is something i've long since come to terms with, but does he seriously need to respond to every single comment on his not-a-blog? what an absolute fucker.

Compose the responses into a single compendium novel "The Sins of Winter" and sell it for big bucks. If the fat gently caress is gonna write somebody should profit.

Hmmmm my husband just let his entire house guard run train on me and then joined in and tossed some coins at me with dead eyes like I was an object. I know what I'll do. Go marry a dwarf and hand over my kids to him since i'm a sentimentalist and he reminds me of the worst loving afternoon of my life.

I was already convinced but man this sounds so GRRM I am putting it up there with "Varys Merman" as my head-ending. (Note: people keep saying that just because GRRM is gonna die there won't be an ending... We got that Artemis Fowl guy to write a half-assed hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy novel; he probably needs work)

We've had Varys cross the world two times in a single episode, we've had Baelish in Winterfell in one episode and then in King's Landing in the next. As far as we know Arya could get to Dorne and then steal dragon eggs from Ashai in consecutive scenes.

I'm betting on the spoilers being 90% accurate.

That's just because there is the person Varys on one continent and the merman Varys on another!

I assumed Walt let her die because she was blackmailing him. It was a hard scene to watch, but I never felt very bad for her. It's been a while though - did he still need Jesse at that point?

A big part of what made Walt a relatable villain was the unspoken implication that even if he didn't need Jessie he wanted to have him as his assistant. Breaking bad was a really good show.

If I said Martin posted two days ago that the next ASOIAF book "should be completed soon" would anyone believe me?

I might believe he was publishing a blank book with a single page at the end dedicated to letting you know his next one will be out even more quickly than the last.
