No it isn't "obvious". Purely speculative. The Many-Faced God is based on Braavos. Talking about the only god being the god of Death is like saying valar morghulis. Which is a common saying in Braavos.

I'm going to go ahead and end this arguement.
Syrio is dead.
The gentlemen the in the cart with his head covered is Jaqen. He is a faceless man from Braavos.
He is also gone or at least that personality is.

Valar Morghulis translates to every man must die.

It is the motto unofficial motto for the faceless men.

You haven't read the book, though. You stopped at page 753, just like everyone who was reading the scans.

And the vast majority of readers didn't wait the SIX (not ten) years since the last book, since most readers started during or after the first season of the HBO show.

I didn't even have to wait a single day to start reading ADWD after I finished AFFC, and I finished reading the scans yesterday, so I'll only have waited two days to finish ADWD.

I avoided the series for years because I thought it looked dumb. The one time I picked a book up I happened to flip to Dany's lesbian scene in COK, and I was like: ....nope.

Then about a month before the TV show started I happened to read The Hedge Knight. Liked it a lot, read the next two, then started reading the main series while watching the show. So it's been nice not having to wait on GRRM.

Reading all four books at the same time has made it very clear that the first one was the best, and the 3rd and 4th a good deal worse.

The VAST majority of readers are not new. The book was absolutely huge before the show, hence being made into a series by HBO, and the majority of people who watched the show were readers.

Dude, even GRRM has said that there are many more readers now than before the show. Book sales have risen by several orders of magnitude. For the first time ever, all the books are now (or were, until a couple of weeks ago) in the top ten of the NYT best-seller list.

That Dany chapter and the Theon chapter just before it have been two of my very favorites so far (the other being Bran II). The Dany chapter is awe-inspiring, reminiscent of the final chapter of AGOT. The Theon chapter is wonderful because Ramsay has thoroughly been established as one of the truly evil characters, and the Theon plot line in Dance has you aching for him to man up and do something about his situation. The series has very few moments when characters get to do something heroic and survive, and Theon's daring princess rescue is, consequently, one of the coolest parts of the book.

Kindle = mobi
Apple = epub

The methods that remove epub DRM don't work with Apple's Fairplay DRM. It hasn't been cracked yet, and no one is really trying, as far as I can tell.

The mobi format that Amazon uses relies on the device/account that purchased it to encrypt the book. Either the original buyer needs to download the ebook via Kindle4pc, then use calibre to decrypt it, or I need the serial number of the Kindle that originally bought the ebook.

I could try to brute force it, but it would probably take months.

Anybody done yet?

Holy shit. Cliffhangers galore. Of course it will be even worse at the end of the next book after Pate/Jaqen steals Sam's horn, blows it and brings the wall down.

After watching game of thrones I am going to buy the second book because I can't wait for the second season.

Then I'll buy the third one.

I've heard the fourth and fifth one sucks, why?

People say that in the fourth book nothing happens, but I don't know, I enjoyed it a lot. The fifth is this one, and everyone is pissing their pants about it, soo...

Calibre for pc. Laputa for android.

Calibre can also convert the book into many other formats if you want to read the book on an ebook reader.

LATEFAG REPORTING IN

Excuse my lazy ass, but I see several links and I'm just going to ask instead of searching the thread.

Any links for the full book yet? Preferably PDF, but all formats will do.

Holy Shit! The Kindle retail version lets you use text to speech. That NEVER happens. I usually just pirate books and import them onto the thing so I can listen to stories while working or playing games. This is fucking rad.
