@@studiocigsplain8588 As a company grows so too does their workload. No company can just keep making games once every five to ten years without doing anything else, it's just not feasible. That's why they're making Cyberpunk 2077 as well. Investors need to see the company's revenue increase annually, which means you have to sell more, which means you have to make more. Eventually, they'll have to embark somewhere else so why not have that be ASOIAF's wonderful world of Westeros.
@@TunezCottage I agree with what your saying, but quality games take time just look at rockstar,the reason why CDPR takes so long is because they are a relatively small company with a smaller work force say then ubisoft which has multiple studios working and has the luxury of working on 4 to 5 projects at any given time. But the more I think about it a game set in Weateros would be pretty sweet.
whycreate Hey man. When I stumbled on this channel, I watched all of your "TSOIAF" videos within a day and can't get enough! Being a Joe Abercrombie fan myself (as they say "the younger George RRRR Martin") I have a lot of respect for your work and wanted to commend you on amazing job you have done! THANK YOU SIR! And remember! Thought is material.
Do you know if these stories, 'The Princess and the Queen' and 'The Rogue Prince' are fully included in 'Blood and Fire'. I have seen that one of the first chapters is called 'The Sons of the Dragons', however I could not find the names of the others. But as the first Volume of 'Blood and Fire' contains the Dance of the Dragons it would make sense if the two other stories would be included as well, maybe under different chapter names. Do you know anything more specifically? I do not really want to purchase two collection books with over 40 short stories, just to have these two from G.R.R. Martin. Thanks!
The World of Ice and Fire is amazing. I think it is advertised a bit poorly, since one might assume it only compiles all the Information that is already in the Main Series into one nice package. Nothing could be further from the Truth. This truly feels like a History Book and yeah the Artwork in it is stunning. I'm really looking forward to Fire and Blood as well. You already get a pretty detailed description of the life of all the Targaryen Kings in The World of Ice and Fire, so getting an even more in depth look should be interesting
So are all three of the Targaryen short stories in a world of ice and fire? Does that mean I could buy World of Ice and fire and not buy the three separately
i love how there’s a huge spoiler in this video now 3 years later for people who haven’t read and are just watching HotD and watching this to catch up🤣
Brale I wouldn’t recommend it. Fire and Blood and A World of Ice and Fire are just history books - it’s not written like the novels. It tends to help if you’re already invested in the world when you go into them. You could start with Dunk and Egg novellas, I suppose, as they’re pretty independent from the main series. You’ll miss a bit of dramatic irony but otherwise you’re good to go
I beg... Somebody please make some video games out of this interesting world... So many maps and places... God it will be far better than pubj that's for sure... 😩
Before the show was made, The Song of Ice and Fire people approached Bethesda to make an open world RPG like Oblivion in this world but they said no and started making Skyrim. Play Skyrim and you'll see why. It is also very lore driven. They opted to make a show after that knowing that no other company could capture this vast world.
@@Roseyfinchartworks yeah ..i used to play that but its now nowhere to be found .Could u hwlp me with its link of all epispdes or something.I just played the 1st season years ago
So like fire and blood but about the age of heroes? Or earlier? I dunno, as all the information we get about the world is from the point of view of westerosi maesters I don't think it could be very in-depth without George suddenly deciding to write as an omnipresent narrator. I don't think we will get a book like that or learn anything else set around those times except if it's important to the plot and Bran learns about it in the cave with bloodraven
I'm pretty sure the ending in the book will be similar to the show, but the road, if we ever get there will be way better and the ending will make more sense
@@Treasuure that's enough for me, I know Martin said the ending would be similar, but until the last book comes out he might change his mind and change the ending completely idk
@@Brandonhayhew Dunk and Egg would be more like a prequel TV show which takes place ninety years before the events of Game of Thrones. They should most definitely make a movie or movies of Dance of Dragons or Aegon's Conquest. Now Robert's Rebellion would be more of a TV mini-series.
@@andrewforte3852 dance of dragons together with aegon III regency has material for 4 seasons at least,aegon conquest with the sons of dragons 2 seasons,and roberts rebellion wouldnt work unless we saw the mad king turn mad
I really want to get. The world of Ice and Fire The Princess and Queen Fire and Blood And when the Winds of Winter is finished that aswell( i just pray that that the the amazing man who created all of this, the man we call George RR.Martin lives to see many more years cause he has an amazing talent
It is hard and great work what the author done in the lat two decades but if i where in his place i would rather join forces with other good authors whom can detailed the work more and fast up the writing process.
Muheeb Kassawat I've read books where a famous author pays other authors to do part or all of their job before. In my experience there's a steep decline in quality, with the story feeling disjointed, or aimlessly wandering, etc. I wouldn't want for that to happen to this great series. I may be wrong, but I'd hate to find out.
Ratchet4647 maybe you are wright but JRRM didn’t use other authors until feast for crows, in this book he just want the reader to understand what did happened to westros because of the civil war (Danny’s visions in the house of the undying) and they only take care of few minor characters such as Braine of Tarth and Uran Grayjoy. For sure there is a better ways to give better work but if our beloved author didn’t finish the story (and you have to conceder this as the books take him know more than 5 years to be done) we might be in suspended situation where we can’t guess the ending by ourselves
There is alot of interesting good material to use, I hope future adaptations can capture such legends! Good to know that all the hbo show was just a part of franchise!
Read the main series first, at least a game of thrones. Then you can read fire and blood and the hedge knight and wathever you want, but it's way easier to get on the series by the main books first, since they establish the reader in that world very well.
So are the targaryen short stories separate from "Fire and Blood" or is "Fire and Blood" a complication book containing all the short stories (Like "A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms")??
So The World of Ice and Fire combines the three Targaryen short stories together and Fire and Blood has new Targaryen history and some indie from the short stories?
Thanks for doing this, I have read a song of ice and fire series but didn’t know about most of the others. Now I have a bunch of new books to read and interest me intill season 8 and winds of winter come out!!
Thanx, I have just got into the books this year and have read the 5 books and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. I'm awaiting on my bookstore to get a used copy of 'The World of Ice and Fire' (but did not know that they were available separately), and looking forward to 'Fire and Blood' later this year. I got super lucky and found an advanced reading copy of the original 'A Game of Thrones' which is an uncorrected proof of the book which was issued to some people and with a letter from the president of Bantam Publishing begging the reader to give the book a chance despite it being a fantasy novel (he was very much right to insist). It turns out that it is extremely rare and worth a lot, so all my rummaging at my local bookstore's warehouse sales finally paid off big time with this find, and surprised that they didn't realize what they had when they took it in, or the person who brought it there for that matter. I have it up for sale on eBay, but fishing for a steep price as I figure it will likely increase in value over time, or at least when the new book is finally released. If anyone wants to see pictures of it and/or the publisher's note that was included with you'll find it on eBay with a proper search, and there are only a few copies of it there so it's easy to locate, but mine is listed for $775.00 and is sold by 'thecaliforniacoyote' or the store name 'Coyote Book Lots'. Let me know if any of you think if this is more worth holding on to, but my eventual intent will likely be to sell it at some point.

This definitely helps! Thank you! I have the 5 ASOIAF books, The World of Ice and Fire history books and the maps, but I didn't know in what order to read the Dunk and Egg books, so, thanks!!!

There needs to be a game of thrones videogame. Yes, I know about the shitty RPG, the Telltale game, and Skyrim. The RPG (as mentioned) was shit. The Telltale game looks cool but isn't what I want. Skyrim is a wonderful game but I'd like to have a game in the actual universe of ASOIAF. You know with Targaryens, House Stark, all the important locations like Winterfell and Kings Landing. Also with White Walkers, Wargs, and all the different races and creatures of the series/universe. I'd instantly fall in love with a new RPG for the next generation of consoles and PC. With nice graphics and all. Open World with all the major locations. Well, a map with every location from the game of thrones series would be huge, maybe first the north and then each kingdom as a later DLC, I don't know. You have a preset protagonist but can change almost everything about the protagonist such as clothes hairstyle etc. You have quests (main and sidequests) but you do not know which quest is a main or a sidequest. Similar to Skyrim or RDR2 there are people around the map giving you random quests. Maybe you can even build your own army and attack castles (that feature would be huge but, I use that word rarely, *epic*). You can learn abilities like warging into animals. Maybe you could even become a white walker and do missions for them. What about owning a dragon? Just imagine going mad and destroying Kings Landing with a dragon, just like Daenerys did (btw that scene in the show made no sense but seems fun in a videogame, call me mad). Also, it would be nice if there was destruction such as buildings getting destroyed if you burn them down with a dragon. I know such a game will never happen but let me dream. I believe there will be GOT games especially since HBO is beginning to milk the franchise with new shows. It will still take years just like the Harry Potter franchise is just getting a big RPG next year (A whole decade after the last movie). Have a great day!
Your video was in my recommendations, very nice and detailed video... I recently finished Fire and Blood and would 💯 recommend it gives a lot of details that the book series references to and I felt like I knew more of the world and the houses... I’m in the middle of the World of Ice and Fire book and planning on rereading A night of the Seven Kingdoms... I love the history of this world it’s amazing... the World of Ice and Fire has awesome illustrations and it reads like a history book it’s perfect for a nerd like me lol Great video looking forward to see more about ASOIAF
Should I get the 3 Dunk & Egg short stories & then A knight of the 7 kingdoms? Or can I just get A knight of the 7 kingdoms and not miss anything from the 3 short stories?
Sucio a knight of the 7 kingdoms is a compilation of the 3 dunk & egg short stories, it contains all 3 of them and you wouldn’t miss anything by getting a knight of a the 7 kingdoms
@Troy Crayson wouldn't the blackfyre's be in Fire and Blood PT2 because Daemon, Daeron, Bittersteel and BloodRaven are all sons of Aegon the IV unworthy, and he comes after Aegon the III's reign, which is the reign the book is supposed to end on, so the Blackfyre's will take up a large portion of part 2
So if I want to learn and read more about the Targaryen family and history should I start reading the book, The World of Fire and Ice and then continue with Fire and blood?
Damn lol he said he’s not gonna do another dunk and egg till he finishes winds of winter so that’s just another series we never gonna get the end to 💩💩💩💩💩
you never know,i wouldnt be suprised that after he finish dream,we have 1 dunk and egg novel each year,they are novel with less of 200 pages each,its much easier to write
ALPHA GAMER maybe but that also means he has to put a real ending to what happened at summer hall. And this dude just not about finishing these stories it seems lolol
I have a question. Is the Targaryen short stories exactly the same in "the world of ice and fire" as in for example the novella compilation "Dangerous women"? ...Becourse I have read somewhere that "the original" is different. Is there anybody that have compared them to see if they are identical or not?
One question, i have to buy the 3 short targaryan stories or the World of ice and fire. I find every thing of the shorts stories in the World of ice and fire?
I'm currently reading book 5, part 2. It's difficult to get through. He should have finished the story before the tv series. I'm not sure if I want to continue reading the books
2 important questions! 1. Does it matter in wich order you read these five books? 2. Is a dance with dragons the story of a dance of dragons (the battle) ?? Thanks for answering
The 5 main novels are the same story so yeah it matters how you read. Don't confuse the 5th novel: A Dance with Dragons with the Targaryen civil War which is called: Dance of The Dragons. The A Song of Ice and Fire series consists of 7 books: -A Game Of Thrones -A Clash of Kings -A Storm of Swords -A Feast for Crows -A Dance with Dragons -The Winds of Winter (pending) -A Dream of Spring (pendind) The prequel series of Dunk & Egg is published all together as: -A Night of The Seven Kingdoms The History of Westeros is contained in the book: -The World of Ice and FIre (the whole history from the ancient times till the events of ASOIAF). This is written like a Maester of the Citadel has written it. The History of Targaryen Dynasty specifically is now released in 2 Fire & Blood volumes (this has more info in the Targaryen Era than The World of Ice and Fire): -Fire & Blood part 1 -Fire & Blood part 2 (pending) That's it.
You read it like that: 1. A Game of Thrones 2. A clash of kings 3. A storm of swords 4. A feast for crows 5. A dance with dragons The prequels: 1. Fire and blood part 1 2. Fire and blood part 2 And then there is a huge book about the history of the world of ice and fire but also some other nice prequels
Might want to start with the back stories and history before the main series. They make refrences in the main series that are hard to understand the weight if what they mewn unless you already know some of the history. I read the main series first and didnt relize all the other histories were out until about 2 years after i finished the main series.
I read the main series more or less concurrently with the show, at first I overtook the shows pace by a wide margin, but as I got busier at school the show caught up and passed me, so busy that I have to re-read books 4 and 5 because I was barely able to read and nothing made sense as a result of the extended dry periods. I haven't done so yet. Since then I found the book containing all 3 dunk and egg novelas and the world of ice and fire in the *new* section of my library and immediately checked them out. I'd love to read the rest of the material, but I've found it hard to find and to know what's what and what's been released. So thank you for this video.
@@johannesstrom497 Only the first book is called "A Game of Thrones". The series is called "A Song of Ice and Fire" not "Game of Thrones Books", that's what he meant.
Winds of Winter is essentially done just not properley cut down and edited, within a couple of years the basic framework for Dream of Spring will be done so can be completed by his team if needed.

@@td202beats7 Fire and Blood is only about the Targaryens, starting with Aegon The Conquerer, It has dialogue and it”s focused on characters. The World of Ice and Fire is like a history book, it starts with the time period when there were no humans in Westeros. It talks about all the Kingdoms, all the important Houses, including a summary of the Targaryen rule (spoiling Fire and Blood). Then it goes beyond that, and presents almost all the regions in Essos and beyond, places that were only mentioned in the Main Series (There is even a third continent in the south) Fire and Blood takes a small part from The World of Ice and Fire, The Targaryen rule, and expands on it. For me, it”s the most exciting part from Westeros history.
@@td202beats7 Both White Walkers and the Doom are mentioned in World of Ice and Fire but their origins are unknown. Roberts Rebellion is just summarized in 2 pages, most of the information is scattered in the main series, Ned, Bran,Jaime and Barristan chapters I think.

I haven’t read any of the books.. should I start with The World of Ice and fire or fire and blood.. than the main series? Also which book has Roberts Rebellion in it??
the main series,roberts rebellion is explained there,but if you really want to read more about that,read the world of ice anf fire,there you have roberts rebellion
the world of ice and fire its like a enciclopedia,there you have everything related to the world,everything that happened,from 12000bc until 283ac,fire and blood its the targaryen history in much more detail,but the first vol go from 2bc until 150ac i think

There needs to be a game of thrones videogame. Yes, I know about the shitty RPG, the Telltale game, and Skyrim. The RPG (as mentioned) was shit. The Telltale game looks cool but isn't what I want. Skyrim is a wonderful game but I'd like to have a game in the actual universe of ASOIAF. You know with Targaryens, House Stark, all the important locations like Winterfell and Kings Landing. Also with White Walkers, Wargs, and all the different races and creatures of the series/universe.
I'd instantly fall in love with a new RPG for the next generation of consoles and PC. With nice graphics and all. Open World with all the major locations. Well, a map with every location from the game of thrones series would be huge, maybe first the north and then each kingdom as a later DLC, I don't know. You have a preset protagonist but can change almost everything about the protagonist such as clothes hairstyle etc. You have quests (main and sidequests) but you do not know which quest is a main or a sidequest. Similar to Skyrim or RDR2 there are people around the map giving you random quests. Maybe you can even build your own army and attack castles (that feature would be huge but, I use that word rarely, *epic*). You can learn abilities like warging into animals. Maybe you could even become a white walker and do missions for them. What about owning a dragon? Just imagine going mad and destroying Kings Landing with a dragon, just like Daenerys did (btw that scene in the show made no sense but seems fun in a videogame, call me mad). Also, it would be nice if there was destruction such as buildings getting destroyed if you burn them down with a dragon.
I know such a game will never happen but let me dream. I believe there will be GOT games especially since HBO is beginning to milk the franchise with new shows. It will still take years just like the Harry Potter franchise is just getting a big RPG next year (A whole decade after the last movie).
Have a great day!
Someone explain how this qualifies as a ya fantasy when there’s mg fantasy that’s super dark
Are princess & queen, rouge Prince, and sons of dragons all in Fire&blood or just pieces?
I haven't read any of the books at all. Which one would you suggest I start reading first?
So there are 9 books right?
So i need to read the regular 7 books of ice and fire,A knight of the seven kingdoms, The world of ice and fire, and fire and blood? right?
Basically yeah
Beautiful. More grace and knowledge
I just want to read the books so I could get an ending that makes sence
You don't want to read it because it is quite possibly the greatest Fantasy Series ever written?
Your video was in my recommendations, very nice and detailed video... I recently finished Fire and Blood and would 💯 recommend it gives a lot of details that the book series references to and I felt like I knew more of the world and the houses... I’m in the middle of the World of Ice and Fire book and planning on rereading A night of the Seven Kingdoms... I love the history of this world it’s amazing... the World of Ice and Fire has awesome illustrations and it reads like a history book it’s perfect for a nerd like me lol
Great video looking forward to see more about ASOIAF
Thanks man I’m a reluctant reader but this helps
Great video man, most of it was old news for me but not all, now I know where to find everything, cheers.
Should I get the 3 Dunk & Egg short stories & then A knight of the 7 kingdoms? Or can I just get A knight of the 7 kingdoms and not miss anything from the 3 short stories?
Sucio a knight of the 7 kingdoms is a compilation of the 3 dunk & egg short stories, it contains all 3 of them and you wouldn’t miss anything by getting a knight of a the 7 kingdoms
Where are the Blackfyre rebellions from then? Aegon the Unworthy and all that?
@Troy Crayson wouldn't the blackfyre's be in Fire and Blood PT2 because Daemon, Daeron, Bittersteel and BloodRaven are all sons of Aegon the IV unworthy, and he comes after Aegon the III's reign, which is the reign the book is supposed to end on, so the Blackfyre's will take up a large portion of part 2
“Since they were definitely qualified” 😂
Thanks!
So if I want to learn and read more about the Targaryen family and history should I start reading the book, The World of Fire and Ice and then continue with Fire and blood?
if you haven't read the main series, start there...if so I say just go in order.
I hope those books are big
They are
Damn lol he said he’s not gonna do another dunk and egg till he finishes winds of winter so that’s just another series we never gonna get the end to 💩💩💩💩💩
you never know,i wouldnt be suprised that after he finish dream,we have 1 dunk and egg novel each year,they are novel with less of 200 pages each,its much easier to write
ALPHA GAMER maybe but that also means he has to put a real ending to what happened at summer hall. And this dude just not about finishing these stories it seems lolol
@@vibangigan5336 if what i said,happens,we will know what happened there
Dude I really love your voice! You single? Oh and good video.
Oluwanifemi Olagunju I don’t
Gayyyy
sick of these damn prequels can we finish the fucking story
What about the short stories Blood of the Dragon, Path of the Dragon and Arms of the Kraken? Are they different than in the novels
I have a question.
Is the Targaryen short stories exactly the same in "the world of ice and fire" as in for example the novella compilation "Dangerous women"?
...Becourse I have read somewhere that "the original" is different. Is there anybody that have compared them to see if they are identical or not?
it is how you put it apparently, i just read on the wikipedia page
this proves that martin will keep making money off every opportunity, so he will keep us on hold to take the most out of the series
One question, i have to buy the 3 short targaryan stories or the World of ice and fire. I find every thing of the shorts stories in the World of ice and fire?
I'm currently reading book 5, part 2. It's difficult to get through.
He should have finished the story before the tv series.
I'm not sure if I want to continue reading the books
2 important questions!
1. Does it matter in wich order you read these five books?
2. Is a dance with dragons the story of a dance of dragons (the battle) ??
Thanks for answering
The 5 main novels are the same story so yeah it matters how you read.
Don't confuse the 5th novel: A Dance with Dragons with the Targaryen civil War which is called: Dance of The Dragons.
The A Song of Ice and Fire series consists of 7 books:
-A Game Of Thrones
-A Clash of Kings
-A Storm of Swords
-A Feast for Crows
-A Dance with Dragons
-The Winds of Winter (pending)
-A Dream of Spring (pendind)
The prequel series of Dunk & Egg is published all together as:
-A Night of The Seven Kingdoms
The History of Westeros is contained in the book:
-The World of Ice and FIre (the whole history from the ancient times till the events of ASOIAF). This is written like a Maester of the Citadel has written it.
The History of Targaryen Dynasty specifically is now released in 2 Fire & Blood volumes (this has more info in the Targaryen Era than The World of Ice and Fire):
-Fire & Blood part 1
-Fire & Blood part 2 (pending)
That's it.
You read it like that:
1. A Game of Thrones
2. A clash of kings
3. A storm of swords
4. A feast for crows
5. A dance with dragons
The prequels:
1. Fire and blood part 1
2. Fire and blood part 2
And then there is a huge book about the history of the world of ice and fire but also some other nice prequels
if i want to start from the beginning which one should i read first? can you tell me list of books which i should read first?
Start with the original, book 1 Game of Thrones
Might want to start with the back stories and history before the main series. They make refrences in the main series that are hard to understand the weight if what they mewn unless you already know some of the history. I read the main series first and didnt relize all the other histories were out until about 2 years after i finished the main series.
" the ice dragon " novel also sets in the same world just like these but it is written for children but despite that it's a brilliant story
it's never said that they're in the same world...it seem that way, but it doesn't fit with the history.
George said himself it’s not in the same universe at all. Not lore or part of the story whatsoever.
Maan I got a lot of books to get..
The map plug was really smooth!!!
I read the main series more or less concurrently with the show, at first I overtook the shows pace by a wide margin, but as I got busier at school the show caught up and passed me, so busy that I have to re-read books 4 and 5 because I was barely able to read and nothing made sense as a result of the extended dry periods. I haven't done so yet. Since then I found the book containing all 3 dunk and egg novelas and the world of ice and fire in the *new* section of my library and immediately checked them out. I'd love to read the rest of the material, but I've found it hard to find and to know what's what and what's been released. So thank you for this video.
You’ll probably have to re read the entire series once the new book comes out since it’s been nearly a decade, with no release date in sight
There’s only 1 Game of Thrones book
?
@@johannesstrom497 Only the first book is called "A Game of Thrones". The series is called "A Song of Ice and Fire" not "Game of Thrones Books", that's what he meant.
Oh really sherlock
Kogerokmeget No Shit.
Want book about starks
just checking if anything has changed since this video as its now 5 years old?
Me too 😅
Great video ❤️🙏
What will happen to the story if suddenly writer dies.?! It shouldn't be happen but if it does!!! Valhar Morghulis...
He said that he told other writers the plot.
Winds of Winter is essentially done just not properley cut down and edited, within a couple of years the basic framework for Dream of Spring will be done so can be completed by his team if needed.
@@markpagtama7954 No, he said that if he dies nobody is allowed to end his books
I would guess that winds of winter is done and will be released after the show ends...a dream of spring could be done as well for all we know.
in the world of ice and fire, anyone can die at anytime
Is there a particular reading order that you would recommend?
i gave up halfway thru
Fire & Blood is too epic!
Can't wait to read about Daeron The Good and his descendants, Aegon V definitely.
i want the second vol to read the blackfyre rebellions,bloodraven is such a badass,plus robert rebellion
Got them all!!
Can we pre-order Fire & Blood now? If not, when?
Thanks in advance!

Turns out ,,Targaryen short stories” represents half of Fire and Blood vol 1.
@@td202beats7 All those short Targaryens stories ”The Princess and the Queen” 2013, ”The Rogue Prince” 2014 and ”The Sons of the Dragons” 2017 are included, copy-pasted, in ”Fire and Blood Vol 1” 2018.
@@td202beats7 Fire and Blood is only about the Targaryens, starting with Aegon The Conquerer, It has dialogue and it”s focused on characters.
The World of Ice and Fire is like a history book, it starts with the time period when there were no humans in Westeros. It talks about all the Kingdoms, all the important Houses, including a summary of the Targaryen rule (spoiling Fire and Blood). Then it goes beyond that, and presents almost all the regions in Essos and beyond, places that were only mentioned in the Main Series (There is even a third continent in the south)
Fire and Blood takes a small part from The World of Ice and Fire, The Targaryen rule, and expands on it. For me, it”s the most exciting part from Westeros history.
@@td202beats7 Both White Walkers and the Doom are mentioned in World of Ice and Fire but their origins are unknown. Roberts Rebellion is just summarized in 2 pages, most of the information is scattered in the main series, Ned, Bran,Jaime and Barristan chapters I think. There is also a cool video on yt about Roberts Rebellion: ruclips.net/video/k1zsvHusfPQ/видео.html&ab_channel=BazBattles
I haven’t read any of the books.. should I start with The World of Ice and fire or fire and blood.. than the main series?
Also which book has Roberts Rebellion in it??
main series first definitely, and it kinda fills in roberts rebellion through stories and stuff as it goes
definitely the main series...if you started with a world of ice and fire you would be lost.
Roberts rebellion is boring af. It was all explained in got.
the main series,roberts rebellion is explained there,but if you really want to read more about that,read the world of ice anf fire,there you have roberts rebellion
Im in 3rd grades and im reading book 5
Can anyone tell me in which order I should read?
Great video bro!
Wow it really help
Great video
Ur voice is dope
Human is a needle which builts his own haystack to get lost in it
as far as chronology fire and blood occurs before the world of ice and fire?
It’s the same just more in depth and only half of the targs history.
the world of ice and fire its like a enciclopedia,there you have everything related to the world,everything that happened,from 12000bc until 283ac,fire and blood its the targaryen history in much more detail,but the first vol go from 2bc until 150ac i think
The only thing I see are spinoff ideas
Hope book will better than tv show
I listen the audible on yt.
No he wasn’t stabbed by his friends. It was only 4 guys who didn’t like Jon so they jumped him during a commotion they caused by making a giant kill a guy.
Great video! Thank you!
That's really cool !
Not only were Books 4 & 5 supposed to be one novel, Books 1 & 2 were supposed to be one as well.
bad review
So basically got is like kingdom hearts
Not even close.
So what is the chronological order?
