This is excerpts of book.
Review 1:
So this book is not coming out before the 6th season of the tv show (which I despise with a burning passion) and that worries and saddens me.
I won't blame Martin, because I'm just like him (the queen of procrastination) and as he has stated, some writing days are bad, and there's nothing you can do about it.
I still haven't decided if I'm going to watch the 6th season of game of thrones. Trust me, if it weren't as popular as it is, then I wouldn't. But avoid
ing spoilers will be inevitable. I'm gonna wait a little bit more before making a decision but as of right now, I can only say that I feel sad. I just hope that the delay means that TWOW is going to be better than I'm expecting. *fingers crossed*
Review 2:
First off, COME ON GRRM AND GET THIS BOOK OUT. The Wikipedia says that you predict this book will be about 1500 pages and also said you had the first 400 pages written although only about the first half of that was completely done and edited. That was back in 2011. Almost a third of the book written over three years ago. Seriously, what is taking so long?
I have so many fucking questions. Like who are Jon's parents? Are they Lyanna Stark and Rheagar Targaryen (which I believe), is it Ned and Ashara, or Ned and some random commoner woman? But most importantly, is Jon even still alive? What will happen if he's dead? Will he warg into Ghost or will Melisandre revive him? Or will he be completely dead?
What's Dany going to do with the Dothraki? I'm going to assume she'll get back to Mereen, and if she does will she finally take full control and stop letting everyone walk all over her? Will she finally march for Westeros? Will her army consist of Unsullied, sell swords, freedmen, and Dothraki?
What's going on with Jamie amd Brienne? We all know fully well that she lied when she told him that she knew where Sansa was and that was with the Hound, since Sansa is in the Vale as Petyr's bastard daughter and the Hound is dead (unless you believe in the Grave Digger theory). What role is Lady Stoneheart going to play? Is she plotting to install Jon Snow (Jon Stark?) as King in the North, as the Grand Northern Conspiracy Theory suggests? Did Robb Stark even put Jon as his heir as many believe? Will it even matter?
What the fuck is Lord Manderly doing? He's obviously plotting something big. He says White Harbor is tired of war, and yet is building dozens of warships. He pledges loyalty to the Boltons and then serves them pies made out of Freys.
What's going to happen with this Aegon Targaryen, if that is who he is? Could he be really a Blackfyre? He has the Golden Company, who else is going to side with him? Will Dorne, through a marriage alliance, since their plans to be engaged to both Viserys and Dany have fallen though? If Dany finally gets to Westeros, will anyone there support her over Aegon, since Westeros follows the 'sons of the first son before the second son' rule and Dany is a third child and a daughter on top of that?
Will any of these questions be answered?
So many questions and so many more and all we can do is speculate and make theories. Get the book out George.
