tman2nd Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I haven't read the Dunk and Egg novellas yet, but I intend to when the collection comes out. I do have the World of Ice and Fire and have started reading it, but I don't want to read any spoilers. My question is, are there any Dunk and Egg spoilers in TWoIaF, and if so, what parts should I skip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aemond's Eye Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Well, you'd be best to avoid the passages on the kings Daemon II through Jaehaerys II. I'd recommend reading the novellas first, honestly. Same with TPATQ and TRP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomixIGN Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 You totally should read the novellas first. Dreamsongs on paperback used is on Amazon for 2.99. Legends II and Warriors are more like 10 beans each. Or you can do what I did and Sign up for Audible. Which became my favorite thing ever.

Aemond's Eye Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Completely agree, tPatQ was a bit of a sluggish read IMHO but I'm still glad I read it before tWoIaF.I think it would have been better if it was released along with TRP. It'd have been a lot better if it was a novella akin to Dunk & Egg or even a novel like the ASOIAF books. There's the broad strokes of a good story there. I really hope for a mini-series at some point. I think there's a lot of potential there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaenys_Targaryen Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Skip the final two or three paragraps of Daeron II, which concerns info from THK.. The reign of Aerys I discusses stuff from TMK. (there are no TSS spoilers in the world book). The reigns of Maekar I and Aegon V might contain spoilers for future D&E novella's, as well as the reign of Aerys I, as they discuss the remaining Blackfyre Rebellions.

AtomixIGN Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I wanted to come back and add - that since there have only been three Dunk and Egg books - Daeron II and Aegon V pretty much spoiled - well however many George eventually writes. I mean we know how it ends. But there are a lot of details there. Actually some of the latter Stormlands stuff had me "Oh My!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Snark of Winterfell Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Read the novellas first, more so for tPatQ and TRP spoilers, but there are some D&E spoilers as well. Reading all 5 shouldn't take too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaenys_Targaryen Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Ah yes, there's a spoiler in the House Baratheon chapter in the Stormlands section as well.. Including a page-filling image. But that's for a future D&E... And it's a thing mentioned in the chapter Aegon V also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
