The first time I read ACOK I noticed how Tyrion, in his last chapter, mentions over and over again his lack of a mouth.
This is from pages 841 and 842 of the paperback edition:
So, as I read those two pages I remembered that GRRM loves science fiction and I immediately assumed this was an homage to Harlan Ellison's I have no mouth and I must scream. What do you guys think?
After reading this comment I decided to reread I have no mouth, and I must scream. I noticed a random similarity, the narrator loses the tips of his fingers during the 'hurricane'.
