I just think numbers would really get a lot out of reading them, especially as they start to diverge from the show. He's new to the show and has really gotten into the world.

I'm not opposed to continuing, it's just a matter of time. I'm in the middle of a book now and have a couple on deck, which pretty much takes me to around December.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Nice. I wonder if he will be in charge of forging some new valyrian steel weapons? Maybe. I saw a casting of a bro who looked like a ringer for Rheagar. Possibly a Bran style flashback focused on Rheagar in season 7?

Although some of the stuff listed here has been confirmed from set photos, the rest sounds like utter shit--basically, like all other show theories, it all sounds cooler than what will eventually probably happen.

i finally got my wife to start watching this by agreeing to watch every episode over again with her. challenge gladly accepted. i was on season 1, episode 3 or 4 (the one with doreah and viserys' bath scene) and it's amazing how much foreshadowing they do to events and characters way down the road in the tv series this early on. having never read the books (whatever pete), i never picked up on it when i saw the show the first time.
