A lot of people hate on the fifth book for not advancing the plot too much, but so far I have been enjoying it. I especially like the Theon Greyjoy chapters.

Especially when he bends to his task.

I think I'm the only one who likes Penny for Tyrion ;_;

She's basically what he wanted all along, someone to love him not for his family or gold, but for himself, what he thinks Tysha might have been (though Tysha probably noticed his family heraldry and ran with it).

I also ship Dany with the silent sisters. Because goddamn if I hear one more sentence with her craving cock in her holes I swear I'll just read summaries of her chapters instead of the chapters themselves for the future books.

>> No.1948442

so i've gathered that some people believe that those pies they ate at the wedding were the missing freys.

any idea where that came from?

also i was disappointed as fuck that the davos bran and victarion got so few chapters. The ones about Theon were a nice surprise though.

also if the Green Grace is not the Harpy i will suck my own cock

3 Freys go missing, Maderly claims they just rode off.

Manderly serves 3 huge pork pies at the wedding, seems highly amused by the whole thing.

Manderly requests a song about the Rat Cook (who served a king his own son baked in a pie).

1+1+1=?

Also, Martin said a few years ago that ADWD would future someone getting baked into a pie.

two major flaws with that

first is that the Targaryens have very distinctive features that disappear quickly when they interbreed with others. Aegon might be a bastard of Rheagar or Aerys but no farther than that.

Second why spend all this time training someone most will suspect is a fraud to be the proper king when no one disputed that Visery's was alive and at large. He was only 8 when the rebellion happened, plenty of time to hide him and mold him into a proper king. And yet he and his sister were left exposed in the open almost as if they were bait.

>> No.1948689

Too many people's substitutes dying, not enough actual people dying. If this was the first book Eddard would just find a substitute to be executed in his place. This isn't what I signed up for.
Also having the whole book instist on how Daenerys is too good to leave Mereen to its shit despite everything being more favorable to her elsewhere, only for her to fly away alone at the end felt so stupid I facepalmed.

>> No.1948724

>>1948689

Have a feeling she'll take that Khalasar and turn it right towards Mereen, tidying up and then finally realizing it's nor her place and move the fuck on. Somewhere on that road she'll run into the Second Sons. And the Iron Fleet will be waiting for her at Meereen.

And it only took six fucking books. ashjdshjshjsjjh

>And it only took six fucking books. ashjdshjshjsjjh

and finally someone hits the nail on the head.

As well written as the series is there isn't enough here for seven books. Its five books with tight pacing.

It doesn't help that the Others effectively make everything that isn't about the Wall or the dragons largely pointless.

to go south you must go north, to go........to go forward you must go back
she went back, north to dothraki sea, that will end with her south in mereen then she will go east to asshai, pass beneath the shadow, sail the sunset sea and emerge under the walls of lannisport or maybe Pyke.

>mfw I'm being bombarded by the Jon/Daenerys/Tyrion trifecta of chapters in ADWD

Fuck man, I wasn't annoyed by any POV in particular in the first 4 books but in this one I just wish more interesting characters had as many chapters as these fags. Them being always clumped one after another doesn't help either.

>> No.1948780

I really enjoyed tyrion chapters in all the books. Except for ADWD. And Whenever I got to daeny it was time to stop reading for the night. Reek was surprisingly awesome, and I loved everything about all his chapters. I hope the next book has Mance Raydar POV he's so boss.

Because their magic began to actually work only recently- see how Melisandre says in her POV that most of her "spells" were alchemist powders and such tricks.
Humans thought they could foresee the future from bird entrails or cracked turtle shells in history, so it's not that farfetched to think the fire visions before the comet and all that shit were just that, people looking into a fire and divining responses from it

Dany spents too much time in Mereen. Her chapters were the only ones you could basically skip without missing anything important to the story.
How is anyne supposed to care about some random characters named Huzdafan or other strange names when there is no way they have any significance in the main story.
You could have a volcano destroy Mereen and everyone there and nothing of value to the story would be lost. (As long as Tyrion, Dany and the dragons survive

Aegon takes the Iron Throne and flies the green dragon.
Dany flies the black dragon, burns a lot of shit...and hopefully dies.

>> No.1949432

>>1949126

I think Bran would recognize Benjen, but we never see Coldhands face, its covered by a scarf and hood, I'm assuming the cold would preserve it, but then again the crows could have pecked at it before he ressed. Coldhands is a wight, but some kind of greater wight, that remembers and has purpose, if thats the Greenseer controlling it or something else I have no idea.

And I think the reveal will be that Benjen got wrecked by the Others and became Coldhands...

Just a theory feel free to disprove me.
