So, we'll have a lot of action in the beginning of the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoldAsYouPlease Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Btw, silly me, I'd never thought that the dragon horn was an actual dragon HORN!Yup, same here - so blowing air through the horns on a dragon's head apparently means something to other dragons. Maybe they communicate that way :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamthedave Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Those battles were actually meant for ADwD, but the story moved too slowly to include them.I can't help but feel that if your story is moving too slowly to include the exciting bits you ought to do something about the slow bits rather than the exciting ones...Fingers crossed he has this one finished in a couple of years. He certainly seems to be making a lot of progess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly seems to be making a lot of progess.Yes, this is correct. The problem was that he spent an impossibly long time writing the stuff we all hated and dickering about how to do the good stuff. So he never got to the good stuff. Truly sad for us.Alas, all this progress is old progress, stuff moved from ADWD. He recently said in an interview he hasn't started on TWoW yet because he's been doing the map books. He still has to write two (??) short stories before he begins on TWOW... ugh...Don't hold your breath, people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn’t what you meant by short story, was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Giant Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I hope so, I'd love a new D&E novella before Winds.Oh and thanks for this OP, been wanting something like this for awhile, it's much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waaimasjien Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Oh I hadn't listened to the Victarion chapter yet, so this is cool. Not gonna read the summaries of the Tyrion and Arianne chapters; I'd rather be surprised by the actual text.He recently said in an interview he hasn't started on TWoW yet because he's been doing the map books. He still has to write two (??) short stories before he begins on TWOW... ugh...Where's that interview? I thought the intent was to start writing on TWOW in January. I do remember reading on his blog he had 5 projects at the same time, but one of those should be book 6 right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Only Fire and Blood? Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Those battles were actually meant for ADwD, but the story moved too slowly to include them.Never noticed it either :PGRRM I think said he wants to sort out the endings of ADWD (Meereen, Winterfell, Jon Snow etc) in the beginning so we can expect a fast paced beginning with any luck :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dornish Hen Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Thanks Ser Malthred! I spent a couple of hours trying to locate the Arianne and Tyrion chapters and still couldn't find them. :bang: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
