A Complete History of A Song of Ice and Fire

JUST YES!!!!

What arrived at my door today? After days of anxiously awaiting the package, it finally came!

I ordered 3 copies of the new book, "The World of Ice and Fire: The Untold History of Westeros and the Game of Thrones."

Two of them came today and one is on its' way as a gift for someone special: my mother.

I got her into A Song of Ice and Fire books about two years ago. I guess after hearing me rant and rave about the books and the HBO series at how many family gatherings and get togethers, curiosity got the better of her.

I haven't opened my books yet but boy, oh boy is it a beauty! It's a large book, with an appealing burnt orange slash brown colour to it and they are individually sealed.

I can't wait to open it up and start reading the contents. But with Halloween around the corner and my full time occupation of teaching wee little ones, this week is just way too busy to crack the book open.

Friday night, however, is another story!

Jaime in Dorne?! Huh??

Okay, so according to all the websites that I subscribe to, many a leaked photo indicate that Jaime Lannister is in a different outfit.

As in, Dornish robes.

Yes, you read that correctly. What on earth is Jaime doing in Dorne? What for? Why is this change taking place in the HBO series?

I've read the first five books and there was never any mention of Jaime Lannister + Dorne.

I'm very confused and a tad annoyed by this. Sure, I'm annoyed...because if they are showing Jaime Lannister in Dornish clothing, than that means that plenty other plotlines are going to be messed up.

But hey! Let's leave out Lady Catelyn Stark's resurrection into Lady Stoneheart out of the upcoming season because they didn't feel it was worth including.

Whatevs.

Walk of Shame

Author: Anonymous / Labels: , , , , ,

Filming has been underway for some time now in Spain and in Croatia. The controversial scene with Cersei has been filming, but under the strictest of schedules.

DB Weiss and David Benioff have also made sure that a skeleton crew are around to film a certain scene in which Cersei is forced to walk through the streets of King's Landing. The producers and directors of the show have made sure that only a handful of extras are around for the scene, in order to shoot the scene as quickly as possible and to also protect the actresses' modesty.

Book readers know that a major showdown will take place between Cersei Lannister and Margaery Tyrell.

This is going to be one hell of a catfight!
