That is cool I really enjoyed the development of some of the pov characters while others frustrated me. All that said I am ready for the next bookCharlotte 00 | Charlotte 03 | Asheville 04 | Atlanta 12 | Greenville 16 | Columbia 16 |Seattle 18 | Nashville 22 | Ohana Festival 24 x2 | Atlanta 25 x20

Yeah, I hate to say it but sometimes Davos bored me in the previous books. I'm liking his chapters now. I wish we could talk about it already. I just finished one of Tyrion's chapters and want to discuss!!! No one I know has read them.bugs in the way...I feel about you

I'm almost done with book 4 and liking it more than I thought. Except - I'm getting annoyed with the books ending with something HUGE happening to a character and then the character doesn't appear in the next book. Like with one of my favorite characters (starts with an A) who I guess isn't in the 5th book. It was weird enough reading this one without Tyrion.
Anyway, I love all the Iron Islands stuff and Asha. Can't wait for 5.0 -

Glad you guys are enjoying the books. The first 3 are fantastic.
I know what you mean about the books taking over. I could not stop reading them.
I'm excited that Dragon Con is this weekend and they are doing a big Game of Thrones Panel Saturday that i'm going to check out and evidently they have about 40 people who are dressing up as characters for the parade saturday morning.
Yes i am a geek and I'm excited about this :oops:Charlotte 00 | Charlotte 03 | Asheville 04 | Atlanta 12 | Greenville 16 | Columbia 16 |Seattle 18 | Nashville 22 | Ohana Festival 24 x2 | Atlanta 25 x20
