This feels like we'll need an eighth book, and GRRM is being very cagy re committing to finish in seven. Discussion of the title of the book to be added between Winter and Spring to commence at any time. Yes, GRRM says he has to finish latest Dunk and Egg work, finish clean up on Blackwater script, finish Elio and Linda's compendium book, outline the next Wild Cards book and do several tours before starting active writing on WoW in early 2012. This actually seems like a smart move - he needs some time away from the story to remain fresh. Rob

Also, someone needs to cover the Quaithe communication re Dany re all the people coming to Mereen. I have some but not all. And who is the freaking mummer's dragon - I thought it was Aegon but maybe he's the real thing. Was it Quentyn - but I thought he was separately named.

What are we going to do with Selmy's discussion that Aerys' true love was Tywin's wife? Is this heading towards confirm of the Tyrion is hidden Targ theory? More importantly, probably a good idea to add a new discussion of the Quentyn/Plumm factor - that having Targ blood is important to having dragons like you. This, frankly, shocked me as I thought it would take Tyrion out of play for his obvious role as a dragon rider unless the paragraph one theory comes into play. Also, relatedly, Dany again survived getting burned by fire and there is internal dialogue she should have been fried and was not. Perhaps add text re whether there is a real Targaryan blood fire resistance factor (as opposed to the one time magical events at end of AGOT)? We also need the "who is the three eyed crow" discussion. How old is Brynden? Is he a Stark? Etc.
