Xtopher Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Is it clear to everyone that the "storm of swords" was Stannis´ arrival to aid the nightswatch as they fought the wildlings beyond the wall?It wasnt to me, but ive heard lots of people thinking that. If you ask me, it was the Red Wedding. The storm of arrows falling into the Starks and the storm of swords that fell upon his army outside the castle.Which one is it to you?

Hear Me Roar! Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 How about both?The whole book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Lilac Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I don't really think the title references only one particular scene in the book, but it's more like an indication that a lot happens in this volume as opposed to the other two: Danny taking out the slave cities, The Red Wedding, the fight against the wildlings, there's a lot of action going on, which is a bit funny since technically Clash was the one focusing on the war.

There is a lot of slaughter in throughout the entire book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I always thought A Feast for Crows would have been a better fit for this book, but be that as it may, IMO the title refers to all the battles that take place in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin decided the name "Feast..." he already had published "Storm..." so maybe he felt the same as you later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaleesiDany Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 it seems to me it rained a lot in that book.also, there was a lot of fighting.that's pretty much how I looked at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englshredwolf Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 It just sounds nice. Besides the series name first book, a "C" of "K". a "S" of "S". a "F" "F" c. a "D" of "D". Its all very catchy.Ah this doesn't do the book justice though, that was just a passing thought ;) I always thought It was just the amount of violence in the book compared to the first two books.

TyrionFan82 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I thought the same thing the other day. I just finished today and thought hmmm....how did the title suit the book and have to agree w/others on the battles w/the wildlings, the Red Wedding, Arya and Sandor's fight w/Polliver and the Tickler, Jamie and Brienne, and who can forget.....Ser Gregor and Oberyn. There was a lot of swordplay, but I wouldn't say one moment that defined the book. The closest would be the Red Wedding IMO if you want to do that.

Lord Paramount of Essos Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 The whole book was in autom, there where many rains, there were storms when Robb was going up to the twins where there where swords, so:STORM OF SWORDS for me is the last 3 or 4 Catlyn chapters(sorry for me english) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightOfDragonstone Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 It doesn't refer to a single event as much as it refers to all the important plot violence that basically change the story quite drastically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I don't think it's one specific thing. Does Thoros reanimating the dead bug the crap out of anybody? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AegonTargaryen Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Guys, I'm on Feast right now and reading this thread reminds me of the sheer blood bath that was aSoS. A friend who only watches the series was asking me who survives the next two seasons, I told him any given character has about a 42% chance of surviving through to season 5.*MAJOR SPOILER FROM STORM OF SWORDS BELOW, DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU'VE FINISHED THE BOOK so many deaths guys, Robb Stark, Catelyn Stark, Joffrey Lannister, Balon Greyjoy, Oberyn Martell, Tywin Lannister, Shae and many many more, among them Smalljon Umber, which really pissed me off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckal Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 there's a lot of action going on, which is a bit funny since technically Clash was the one focusing on the war.Not nearly as much clashing between kings as one would be led to believe. There's really only one battle directly between kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
