I was just reading an article on the BBC News website about the books that inspired George RR Martin, by the late French author Maurice Druon - http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-26824993

If you think George RR Martin is a genius, read his novel Fevre Dream. I couldn't make it halfway through.

George RR Martin must have gotten a huge bump in book sales. So many fellow nerds are reading this series. I might have to pick it up myself - though I generally share your aversion to fantasy novels @radx.


I'm re-reading the first four books now to be up to date before I start on book 5, and I'm having just as much fun as when I read them the first time. I too was kind of fed up on the formulaic fantasy genre, but this is something different. It is, as they say, fantasy for people who don't like fantasy.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Hi there, I remeber you being a GRRM SOIAF reader from you comment on http://videosift.com/video/George-RR-Martins-A-Song-Of-Ice-And-Fire-Trailer.



So I'm sending you this link because i can't embed videos from HBO, hoping you can

I got as far as George RR Martin and 1st edition and now all I can say is - AWESOME!

I am about to read book 4 - after wanting to reread the first 3 again

They(George, Connie and the other) were all really great. It seems like he is under a tremendous amount of pressure to finish the books and he wants to take his time.

That said, I really wish he would finish A Dance With Dragons...

I also learned that Tyrion is George RR Martin, according to Parris his girlfriend.

On a side note, I have been rereading the series. I have several suspicions.

1) Jon is Rahgaer and Lyanna's son.
2) Tyrion is going to be the hand to Dany.
3) Dany is going to betray Jon for love, by telling him she does not love him so he does not break his vow to the wall.
4) Howland Reed will tell Jon of his parentage.
5) Jon is the 'Prince who was promised' and will rule the Westeros.
6) The one of the three heads of the dragon is Tyrion.
7) Brienne says "Jamie".

So am I. And I were 1 of them. Strangely enough, I've also been the Jerk who beat them up in High school. So conflicted! I'll be going now, to read A George RR Martin novel.

I so love the exploits of Arya Stark.
