I've discovered ASOIF this year. Read the first five books between jan-march this year.
I can't believe people waited so long between each release. Sounds painful O_O But I guess I'll have my share of pain until TWOW gets released. But the show is a good remedy.

My point exactly. I read through Dance less than a month ago, and it does sound sort of familiar, but not even that much. And definitely not twice.

Also, I have avatar ADD. Nobody will ever recognize who the hell I am. I will try to stick with this one, as it matches my name. Wish there was more Dayne resources to work with. |

Well, those are suppose to be colloquialisms. Although, it is weird to read them when they're found only in one/a few of the books. But that can't be helped.

It is not known. This post is as useful as nipples of a breastplate.
Though really, the repeating phrases didn't get out of hand until ADWD, but it's mostly because that book was rushed and poorly edited. AFFC had some issues with it, but nothing that took me out of the reading process and make me shake my head at GRRM like ADWD did. |

Rushed? I haven't read it yet but how could that be possible? It took 12 years to make!

Rushed editing. Although most of it was already edited before he finished the last chapters, so even thought it was a very quick turnaround, I'm not sure that was the case. Probably more friends with the editor than anything.
Nowhere near as bad as Rothfuss. God damn does that man need to hire his worst enemy as his editor. |

I like sayings, especially if they carry dramatic weight. Winter is coming, for example. Or from Dune - 'May your blade chip and shatter' and 'the spice must flow.'
The only GRRM saying that irritates me, is ACOK/ASOS You know nothing, Jon Snow. God I hate that phrase. |

A lot of his repeated bull shit didn't start happening until ADWD. |

Why are you spoiler tagging that? You know nothing, endre.
EDIT: Nice gifs. ![]() Another one with "Anyone can be banned." would be nice.

(series spoiler) doesnt it also make Stannis look years older as a result? I wish they had made him seem a little weaker or something at least, i've read a lot of complaints about how the shadow baby seemed OP and that it didnt seem to have any limitations. Also the whole thing about Melisandre not wanting to continue doing it because it was draining his life fires

Man wouldnt be awesome if they did an animatrix/halo legends/gotham knight type compilation for GoT.
I really dont think the show will ever go into much detail on alot of the flashbacks and history told in the book.

Great idea. I was pleasantly surprised with Halo Legends.
