Werthead Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Well I hope GRRM does tell us one day what lies beyond the Sunset Sea and the Shadow, also what murder mystery in Braavos? I did find it amusing that GRRM, after saying that the maps in Lands were all we were going to get, opened things out by suggesting there's a whole other continent (if a small one) out there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And would be a lot of trouble to link where did GRRM said that stuff?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 According to George, The Lands of Ice and Fire will be all we get in terms of world maps. It's the world as the maesters map it and no-one has returned from beyond Asshai and the Shadow, or south of the Summer Islands and Sothoryos, or from beyond the Sunset Sea to reveal more. It was from interviews when the map book came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhaenys_Targaryen Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Will the World Book provide us with some years? As in, for example, person A is born in year X, person B wed person C in year Y? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like in tPatQ where we got dates? If its written from a Maester, won't it be in the same style? (e.g. the third moon of the year 129AC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 There are dates for more recent stuff. Ancient stuff is more nebulous, because the maesters can't agree on fixed dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black of Hair and Heart Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Ran, George indicated in his Mercy post that we might be getting a preview of World of Ice and Fire soon? Any idea what/when that will be?Also looking forward to the video you and Linda were going to be doing about it. Also soonish, I hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Varys Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 It would be great if George chose to make the account of the remainder of the Dance (i.e. the fall of Aegon II and the rise of Aegon III) the worldbook preview. That should interest a lot of people, and it may short enough in the worldbook version to make a nice preview... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sifth Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Ran Sorry if I already asked this before, but how will your version of The Dance of Dragons compare to the Princess and the Queen. I know a different maester will be telling the story and I know we'll get to see the end of the war, but I'm still confused by a few things. For example will your version of the story pick up from where TP&TQ ended and tell us the rest of the story or will it take place during the same time and simply show us other battles that were not covered in the first story? Also how will the length of your version of the war compare to the first story? Again I'm sorry, I'm just really confused is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 The book will cover the same ground as TPatQ, and continue on past it through to the end of the Dance, and on into the reign of Aegon III... and then on through the other kings as well. It basically overviews all the history of the Targaryen dynasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It basically overviews all the history of the Targaryen dynasty. Will the text that goes over what we already know be more detailed than the highly.edited version in Dangerous Women though? For example, will we hear from the Greyjoys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 It will fill in more stuff that was left out of TPatQ, and skimp over some things that were handled in more detail there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaenys_Targaryen Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Any idea when an exact release date will be decided on? Both Dangerous Women and Rogues had their exact release date confirmed about 3 months before the actual release. Will it be (about) the same for the World Book?
