Also Bolton has part of House Umbar in Winterfell which could turn on him. I am hoping The Wildlings will join in on the fun. They can scale the walls of Winterfell which should be nothing compared to The Wall which is 700 feet high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 And you know Ramsay's letter to Snow was bullshit. I wonder if Mance is even captured? I could hope to see Stannis and Mance making an uneasy truce.Stannis seems to be moving away from The Red God. I think he lost faith in him after Blackwater. Now his army is growing and his men are actually loyal to him. He is a true soldier.You've read the Theon CHapter from TWOW, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Who's death? Theon? Asha will probably rescue him. But here's the thing, while Stannis is getting ready for an all or nothing battle with the Bastard of Bolton, he sends his knight to Braavos to buy an army to make an assault on King's Landing. I wonder what sellswords he will find? Many of them are battling Dany in Mereen. The Golden Company has invaded Westeros lead by the supposed Aegon VI. And what will Stannis do when he finds out that Aegon lives? It pretty much means the end of Dany's claim to the throne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Yeah, I can't see this ending after 7 books. Maybe Martin will finally get his "five years later". I mean Robb Stark being king at 15 is believable since such a thing has occured during The Middle Ages, but Lord Commander at 16? No. Or an 11 year old assassin.He even hints it herehttp://www.hypable.com/2013/11/04/game-of-thrones-winds-of-winter-release-date-author-interview/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 He originally wanted to do a five year jump after A Storm of Swords, but that didn't work out. He also intended the third book to be the last book but he ended up writing A Storm of Swords which turned out to screw up his five year jump and the result was a book split in two, A Feast for Crows and a Dance with Dragons. I think the saga will never be completed. Maybe that is what he intends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the saga will never be completed. Maybe that is what he intends?no clue, i just wish he would go the robert jordan/brandon sanderson route and write down huge amounts of notes, pages and pages of them detailing how everything wraps up so if something happens to martin a talented writer could finish the story in a respectable way. from reading a lot of fans thoughts on this over the course of a couple of years most ASOIAF fans think there will be 3 more books. just think how many pages is going to encompass the battle in the ice, and the battle of slavers bay, based on what people have said who were in person to hear martin read (i think it was a couple of barristan chapters or one might have been a barristan and tyrion chapter) there is still going to be some build up to the battle of slavers bay, then you have the battle along with stannis vs the boltons. that isnt even taking into account all the other stuff. bran and blood raven, cersei and her shit. jaime/brienne and lady stoneheart. the things going on with sansa and LF. joncon and aegon, the situation in dorne, the stuff going on the wall and the answer is jon dead. you kind of have to wrap this stuff up just to have the ability to set yourself up with an ending. I still think martin is going to need another book to tie things up leading into a dream of spring. A dance with dragons is what 3 years old now? if he can get the winds of winter at the end of this year or early next, i think he could do 2 more books, but if it continues to drag, it would suck if something happened and the book readers have to rely on a show to finish the story, especially when the show has gone off from the books from time to time, so we might get some hint what martin had planned but who knows if it would be martin's true vision.

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Sansa is definitley being set up for something. I think she will become Lady of the Vale, which would in effect give her one of the largest armies in Westeroes after The Reach since The Lannister army has suffered losses and The North has been decimated. The Vale hasn't been touched.Oh can't wait for Victarion's surprise attack. The Ironborn are going to fuck so much shit up. You think the Dothraki will finally joiny Dany now they see she has a fucking dragon? Edited January 17, 2014 by Georgy Zhukov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 and riding a dragon is so much more impressive than riding a horse.And if Aegon can ride, that means he is a Targaryan. Unless he is a long lost Blackfyre. But Stannis also has the blood of Old Valyria in him but I am not sure if he can ride a dragon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 The show hasn't disappointed with the casting of hot girls. Too bad they casted a butch and called her Yara instead of Asha.

Tater Totts Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Predicting we start to see more and more diversions from the book as the series continues, especially if the books don't come out in time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
