The reason why I dont subscribe to anything other than classified adverts so that I dont see spoliers, I need to get cracking on the third book myself.....

Qactuar

Go for it - you won't be disappointed. Slow to start, but it really is a great part to the story.

(p.s., I got my 'quick chapter' in earlier as well )

The third book is by far the best of the series, so far.  From a certain point onwards the shocks just keep on coming.

hmm, how to put this without spoiling it.  A Feast For Crows will not pan out the way you expect it too.  But you will find this out when you read the authors note at the beginning of the book.  That is all i will say on that matter.

Qactuar

The author's note? The bit about Stephen Boucher? Mine (Kindle version) doesn't have a note about anything else .. ?

I haven't got it to hand but in spoiler text to follow, which is taken from the Wiki of of Ice and Fire...  end of spoiler.

I am not sure it is a spoiler really, but i would rather be safe than sorry.Finally, when the novel was nearing completion his publishers realised it was significantly longer than A Storm of Swords and requested it be split in half for publication. After initially considering publishing it as 'Part 1' and 'Part 2', Martin's friend and fellow author Daniel Abraham suggested splitting it by POV and location instead, which Martin agreed with. Thus A Feast for Crows only contains the POV characters from the South of the Seven Kingdoms and the Iron Islands. The characters in the North, in the Free Cities and in Meereen (including fan-favourites Tyrion Lannister, Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen) will return in the fifth book. The split of the novel also meant that the series would be seven rather than six books long. A Dance with Dragons remains the title of the fifth book.

Ah yes, not so much of a spoiler - I did know about that Was totally confused otherwise about the DOS bloke! Haha!

Just about to start book 1 of Ice and Fire. Looking forward to it but thought I'd wait until series 2 is finished on TV.

For now, I'm reading Bulldog Drummond: The Third Round by Sapper.

The TV misses out and changed a lot of the original story especially series two! I had to google about Renly because I couldn't believe what I was seeing :-/
