    it's a pretty awesome story line.


    and the casting i've seen in previews looks Cam-tier. Dany is hot, the Mountain is gigantic, and so on.

    This ^^^. When Robert Jordan got sick he dedicated the remainder of his life to getting as much of the story written as possible so that his epic could be finished. GRRM isn't that type of guy at all. If you read his blog he is pure 100% dbag. If this MF goes down he will be taking his ship down with him.

    And his lame fucking "wild card" novels that nobody fucking reads and his action figures. I actually will never buy anything he writes ever again. I'll just dl the audio books if/when they ever come out.

    I think he wrote himself into a corner and it took him forever to figure out how to connect everything. I think books 6 and 7 will come out pretty quick.

    Spoiler from Book 5
    Putting Tyrion with Dani I am lukewarm about.

    So I finished book two yesterday. Finished the first two books in about a month. (back and forth drives for thanksgiving helped a lot) Had absolutely no desire to read anything else for a while at that point. Just kinda burned out because it's so much more than I normally read.

    I woke up this morning and immediately wanted to start reading book 3. I've never been this hooked on a series in my life.

    A post from Martin's blog:


    Looks like I will be coming out to LA in early January, to talk about the HBO show at the TCA.

    That one is for television critics only, I'm afraid... but I'm looking to set up a couple of public events while I am in town. Watch this space. We will probably do a signing, most likely somewhere in the San Fernando Valley. And our friend Lodengarl, founder and prince of the Brotherhood Without Banners, is going to come down from the Bay Area to organize a BWB event the same day. Details when we have 'em... but angelenos, mark down January 9 on your calendars.

    (Might have an exciting announcement that day as well. Maybe two. But don't quote me on that).


    Thinking it might be an announcement of a publication date for Dance with Dragons.

    Re: Song of Fire and Ice ??

    it's a good article, but I think it really overstates the role magic actually has in the series, unless they're changing that for some reason for the show. It's not like this is the Malazan series with mages walking around using overt magic all the time.

    The bigger thing the audience has to accept is just the setting, which is basically medieval times.

    If GRRM doesn't announce a date for DoD soon, I'm going to hunt him down and extract it from him in ways that would make the Tickler blush.

    a few chapters could drag out for a couple years...don't doubt him.
     
  35. Re: Song of Fire and Ice ??

    I started rereading the series in the hopes that DoD will be out when I finish but I gave that up. I'm on book 2 again and could read a chapter a week and still be finished with the first 4 before the new one is out.
