Martin update

sawtooth said:
For the new POV, I would like to see Osha/Rickon. Their whereabouts and activities are a big mystery. Is she raising him as a wilding? Hanging out in the house of Umber or Karstark? How about Shaggydog?
Yeah, these people just disappeared. It'll be interesting to see what sort of role Martin will have Rickon play in the end, and I want to see him again soon. He had an interesting development in Clash of Kings.
 
I wouldn't mind a POV from the King beyound the wall. I can't remember his name but I think it would a good pov.

Hmmm.... Humanraindelay, have you read AFFC?

Moving on- I think that if it's going to be Theon, it will be post-torture, when he's a broken man. Some time has passed since he was captured by Roose, and since fake Arya was sent on her way North. I think it will start off with him recognizing Jeyne Poole for who she really is.

I don't think Mance Ryder is actually in AFFC, is he?
I know he was suppose to be before the split and several people (you & me included it seems!) have read the sample chapter explaining his fate.
I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it though... ;)
 
Keep in mind that Theon is one of few left who can identify all the Starks, not just Arya (or fake Arya, if you prefer). Assuming that the POV will be Theon, I think it will be interesting to see how he plays this knowledge. He can't let on to the Boltons that he knows about Arya, or that will spell his doom. He may also play a pivotal role in legitimatizing other Stark children.
 
Could the returning POV be Sansa since she was Alayne in Feast? Does she make her way north now that she's off the Eerye?

This is my first post and excited to discuss my favourite series with those who feel the same...

Interesting. It would have to be at the end of aDwD due to the parallel nature of the times in both books, but MArtin has said that aDwD will extend timewise past aFfC.

Exactly, that's why I responded without giving too much away. Suffice to say, I think a POV from Mance is highly unlikely. :)
 
During the long (oh my god, it was long!) 5 year wait between A Storm of Swords & A Feast for Crows, GRRM on his official site, posted several (maybe as many as 10??) sample chapters over the last 2 years or so, but as each new one was posted, the previous one was replaced. The current one is a Dany sample and will probably stay on until A Dance with Dragons is released.
He also released a short excerpt in Dragon Magazine called "The Arms of the Kraken" which I read. This was mainly The Prophet and The Kraken's Daughter chapters from AFfC, though.

I think as those earlier samples had been in the 'public domain' he released those chapters in a seperate booklet when AFfC was released.
I'm afraid I can't remember it's name though...it may have actually been called A Feast for Crows preview booklet or something...? (though it was now actually ADwD preview!)
Raven will when he sees this thread. I think he's even got one! :)
 
so do I have to kill a man to get this aDwD preview or is it readily available?
 
I think he was a soldier at the castle Lancel was given after the war...........
I'm sure we hear him talking with Jamie when he comes to see his cousin...
he just says "bugger me I didn't" or F**ck me no".....etc

Really funny guy
