Hi! does anyone know which GRRM works are and aren't in Dreamsongs? I googled, but I'm lousy at it.

Thanks!

Well, if you are into ebooks and and actually want to, ah, pretend that all of George's stories are in Dreamsongs ... then you can get back to me.

I must say I was manifestly angry writing this collection for the first time and then having to read through commentaries where the author constantly talks about or references stories that aren't in that collection.

An editor can do that occasionally, but if you have a book which is pretty much a nearly complete collection then stick to the material you are presenting, and ignore whatever you kept out of there.

Yeah, the stories omitted from it are really weird to omit too
