Tecnoladave Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 It definitely irons out a few theories. For me the Aegon V chapter gave me the best but everyone is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I will read it from start to finish and try to give each chapter solid attention. But the section I am most excited about in advance are the Targaryen history, and any info about the North and the Lands beyond the Wall, Land of Always Winter, anything about the giants, Children of the Forest and the Others. As such I expect the first half of the book will appeal to me the most, but the second half will undoubtedly have many nuggets of information and great art that I will love.

Lion of the West Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Westerlands, and after that I can take things as they come. I hope but failing that the Faith Rebellion and the Blackfyre Rebellion are good candidates for me to go for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonel Green Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I really want to read about the reign of Jaehaerys I. One of GRRM's more frequently-cited quotes about Tolkien is querying what it means that Aragorn ruled well as King of Gondor; but the actual ASOIAF series has, to date, pretty much been a long list of examples of people failing at the job. Jaehaerys is the guy who got it more right, and for longer, than anyone else. Let's see what that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see what that means.Yes, I am also very interested in him, for those reasons as well as the fact that he lived in those early days when the reign of the Targaryens was really at it's height.

Bael's Bastard Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 If something in Jaehaerys I's life must be less than perfect, I wouldn't be surprised if it was with some of his children. He seems to have had mostly success as a ruler. I suspect he had less success as a father, at least with some of his children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to have had mostly success as a ruler. I suspect he had less success as a father, at least with some of his children. From "The Rogue Prince" it seems like Jaehaerys outlived all of his children, possibly excepting Saera, who went to Essos for some reason (and whom he mistook Alicent for). Could be some personal tragedy there (well, obviously, outliving all of your nine children, as well as your wife and siblings, is a pretty heavy thing).

Ser Arthur Hightower Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Faith militant and Maegor, I want to read about roast holy man. Plus I want to know what happened to his wives, maybe there is a Henry VIII-esque rhyme for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Aegon The Conqueror Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Could someone message me what theory gets crushed? Mine comes on the 28th but I'm one of those people who even after reading it won't be able to figure out what theory's been smashed. Please message me someone :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
