When I finally got through the final hurdle of my second year and life went back to normal, Luke was 3/4ths of the way through A Dance with Dragons, whereupon he promptly put down the book and I’ve seen him pick up maybe one or two others since.

We still laugh about the fact that he picked a rather difficult, and dense series to read to attempt to woo me, and didn’t even finish the series, despite being so close! At least he gets to hear about the series daily now from me! In my reread of ACoK, the personalities of the big players begin to be developed and flushed out.

As when I reviewed The World of Ice and Fire, which was broken up into four components, Ancient History, Seven Kingdoms, Free Cities, and t he world beyond the Free Cities and my in-depth analysis of AGoT, I will be formatting the posts in bullets containing the topics that catch my interest during the reread. Of note, I’ve highlighted in RED several of my theories, as well as interesting insights garnered from the novel. The prologue offers our first glimpse of Dragonstone, Stannis, and Melisandre.Please let me know what you think! I’m really looking forward to hearing your theories, however you’d better be able to back them up with references to the text. While these are all important characters and location, I found myself most drawn to Patchface. The jester of Dragonstone was the lone survivor of the shipwreck that claimed the lives of Robert, Stannis, and Renly’s parents on their return from the Free Cities where they were looking for a bride for Rhaegar. #A clash of kings audiobook chapter list free He washed ashore on the third day, coughed up water as he was being dragged away as a corpse, with the knight that had picked up him swearing that the boy was clammy dead. His wits and memory were wiped clean and is now a prized companion of Stannis’s daughter. I couldn’t help drawing a connection to the Drowned God, with respect to Patchface’s rebirth by water. Many of his comments that we are privy to are connected to the water, e.g., ‘here we eat fish, under the sea, the fish eat us.’ Everyone seems to discredit his ramblings, but perhaps he has been given the gift of foresight by the Drowned God, especially when he won’t stop singing about the shadows, e.g., “The shadows came to dance, my lord, dance my lord, dance my lord,” he sang, hopping from one foot to the other and back again. The other comment that stood out to me was Shireen’s complaint regarding her bad dreams about the dragons coming to eat her.“The shadows came to stay, my lord, stay my lord, stay my lord” he jerked his head with each word, the bells in his antlers ringing up a clangor.” Could these shadows be referring to Melesandre’s murderous shadows that will soon make an appearance in Clash of Kings? The second section has us returning back to Arya who is on the road with Yoren.Does this refer to Daenerys coming to Westeros, or perhaps an allusion to the rumored stone dragons on Dragonstone coming to life? Or if the show is to be believed, are the dragons eating her referring to the flames that she might be sacrificed to for the sake of Stannis’ war? With Martin, I never discredit bad dreams. We don’t realize it yet but one of the three men in the cage will significantly change Arya’s path through these books. In Sansa’s first chapter Joffery’s name day is being celebrated with a tournament, in which Ser Dontos Hollard makes a fool of himself, leading to Joffery sentencing him to death.I can’t help to question, how did a Jaquen H’ghar, a member of the Faceless Men become captured and placed in the King’s Landing dungeons if it was not of his own volition? Why did he not escape? It all had to be a plan of some bigger purpose. Sansa jumps to his rescue, leading to an interesting connection in the future. #A clash of kings audiobook chapter list free.#A clash of kings audiobook chapter list series.
