rmholt Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Pretty sure I have preordered this. Without the maps I would be lost. They add so much! I do prefer completeness and readability (and accuracy) to aesthetics but it looks like we'll have some options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveSumm Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I do believe they'll be in the same scale.We will not be using the same maps or map artist, at least from what I was last told.Fantastic! Bedroom wall, prepare yourself for one framed triple-megamap. In fact I've got an abundance of unused picture hooks scattered around my house, I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up framing the whole lot....

Neo Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 This looks awesome. I wonder how far North the Land Beyond the Wall map will detail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 No further north than the ASoS maps that end just north of Thenn more or less, I believe. Pretty sure the only new geography will be the eastern maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveSumm Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 but it's still kinda weird coz martin has stated we might be seeing the LOAW in the next two novels. maybe we wont get to go THAT far up northI think the idea with all maps in the series is that we don't know any more than the characters. Regardless of who travels there, the Lands of Always Winter will still be unmapped. I think it's why we didn't get an Essos map in aCoK, so we could share Dany's perspective of not knowing what awaited her past the Red Waste. Whoever's POV we see tLoAW from, they won't know their way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Mac Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Cool stuff. Oddly enough, the "Known World" Map is the only one I don't recognize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion of Judah Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I'm buying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Arryn Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 So that pretty much confirms Venice as the only real parallel for Braavos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 Yeah, the 'Known World' extract is very interesting. I'm assuming that's one of the new areas in the east of the Dothraki Sea, or even to its east, beyond that big new mountain range. Though that raises the question of who built 'the Five Forts'. I'm also guessing 'Land of the Shrykes' is a nod to Dan Simmons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurkhal Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 This will of course be a very interesting addition to the library. But what I am most interested in is seeing new additions to the map of Westeros proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordBloodraven Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I was wondering If I would buy a book of posters and it seems that I will now. The maps looks fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I was wondering If I would buy a book of posters and it seems that I will now. The maps looks fantasticIt's really, really beautiful. I'm buying, never expected myself to buy a mapbook myself either, but hell, this is ASOIAF we're talking about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Added another look at the maps to the site, with a hint of our third and final preview that well post next week. This week's is a good chunk of Braavos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordBloodraven Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Will we have a map of the castles (Winterfell, Casterly Rock, King's Landing and the Red Keep)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hempen Dan the Ropemaker Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Castle maps would be cool but I don't think they are in this book, maybe something to hope for one dayReally interestied in mantarys and 5 forts revelations. Could dany have some more stops? I'm not a huge dany must get to westeros person so that could all be really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kephv Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 There's already a map of King's Landing out there. Don't know if there will be another in this book or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if there will be another in this book or not.I hope that one will be ameliorated (does this verb exist?).
