    I dont think it will be the first episode, they have to introduce the Red Viper first. I really thought season 3 would end with Catelyn coming back but that didnt happen. Balon could die in episode one....

    I just finished book 3 and holy shit a lot of stuff happened after the Red Wedding. I was a little disappointed in the Red Viper because of the hype I've heard and then poof, he's gone in like 2 chapters. Fucking Littlefinger pulling all the strings. Now I must go so I don't get spoiled.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    After reading up on fan theories and this thread over the past few days I've decided that it's in my best interest to read them. In fact I downloaded them onto my phone during lunch today. I think I should take a break from the world of GRRM for a little while and read these shorter tales at a more leisurely pace.
  • uninnocent-uninnocent- Posts: 5,959
    And now I'm done the Dunk & Egg tales. It's quite an interesting series so far, and I enjoy knowing more of the realm during the reign of the Targaryens.

    I feel that!

    Anyone want to take a page out of Stephen King's Misery and kidnap Gurm, forcing him to finish the goddamn series already?

    So I read Book 4 in the spring and just started book 5 recently. Did I miss How Sam is back on the wall? last I recall, he took a ship with master Aemon and Gilly somewhere.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Do you mean how the beginnings of Books 4 and 5 start at the same moments in time but then split off into different characters points of view?

    I understand they run concurrently. I know they already covered Sam leaving in book 4. Do they cover it again in 5?

    Book 4 and half of 5 run during the same time. Then the rest of book 5 takes place after the events 4. Not sure where exactly the line is drawn. I think when character POVs that were in book 4 appear in book 5 everything is on the same timeline.

    It's been a while since I read it, but since Jon is a point of view character for book 5, I think it may get mentioned from his side before his story moves on.
