WoIaF App - Update

Just an FYI for those who have the WoIaF phone/tablet application...there was an update over the weekend that added more contect and also added more excerpts.



Excerpts now include:


TWoW - Barristan Selmy I


TWoW - Tyrion I


TWoW - Mercy


TWoW - Theon Greyjoy


TWoW - Arianne Martell I



TWoIaF - Aegon's Conquest


TWoIaF - The Rhoynar


TWoIaF - The Vale



On a speculative note...the Theon chapter is not followed by a chapter number...should I presume that he won't have more than one chapter? Or is that an oversight?



I can understand why Mercy doesn't have a chapter number since Arya's name may change or she may be referred to something other than Mercy.

There was only one Theon sample chapter.

FYI. This update is only for the iOS version for now. According to Random House they are working on a complete overhaul of the Android version and an update will go live soon.

So was there more than one sample Tyrion, Barristan or Arianne chapters?

And I only have it on iOS devices...thanks for clarifying it...I was unaware.

That's correct. IIRC Barristan, Arianne and Tyrion have two sample chapters each (some read at conventions). One Tyrion chapter appears on the app only.

ETA. One Barristan chapter was published in the paperback edition of ADwD.

Dang...I've only seen one sample chapter for ones listed above. I didn't know there was a second one out there...or read aloud somewhere.

Is this app worth my time?

I love the App because it's a good reference for houses, locations, and items.

It doesn't have theories or real indepth descriptions unlike the Wiki on some items...but it does report the facts as we know them at this point in the story.

Such as, it lists Jon Snow as Ned's bastard because that's the fact, regardless of theory.

You can download the App for free and it gives you the original POV characters a light background. You can then purchase the spoilers based on what book you've finished. If you purchase that info, more information is added to the App.
