I've just finished 'Vindolanda' by Adrian Goldsworthy which is a conspiracy set in Northern Britain in the twilight of the Roman Empire. It was a very good read.'Cigars are a hobby, cigarettes an addiction'Comment

Yes! The sequel 'The Wise Man's Fear' is equally as incredible! Though the years and years of waiting for the third is a wonderful test of patience and memory, a bit like Mr Martin!Originally posted by Niela View PostOnly the impossible is worth the effort.

The series will be some sort of prequel to the books and the movie then takes on the stories of the books. So should work out fine...Originally posted by thedame007 View PostI was thinking the same thing 2 years ago...

Don't get me started on GoTs. Since the TV writers ran out of books to copy from the series has become such a pile of s***. They ruin the whole thing and G.R.R.Martin is likely to die before he ever finishes another book...

Do NOT even think that!Originally posted by Niela View PostG.R.R.Martin is likely to die before he ever finishes another book...
He needs to stop with the side projects, and finish what he started first! Sure 'Martin isn't our bitch', but damn it he does have a responsibility to his readership!

Yeah, I never even read those volumes. Jordan said that there was one more volume to be released to end the story. How many volumes did they publish after his death? 3 or more?Originally posted by thedame007 View PostOh god, then some relative will come along and bodge it 'because that's what they would have wanted' ... liar, you just wanted that extra house!

Terry Pratchett has the right idea, getting it legally destroyed on his death to prevent posthumous releases that are subpar.Originally posted by gojira View PostOnly the impossible is worth the effort.
