A Song of Ice and Fire Book [4 + 5]A Feast for Dragons: A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons MegabookA Song of Ice and Fire Book 4 (A Feast for Crows) and A Song of Ice and Fire Book 5 (A Dance with Dragons) combined into one book. ***********************************So, the action of A Feast for Crows mostly concentrates on King’s Landing and Cersei and Jaime and their ilk, dispatching Tyrion and Jon and Daenarys to what became A Dance with Dragons. This (imho) was a mistake that made the reading of A Feast for Crows something of a grind. Martin has said it was a bitch to write. George? It was also a bitch to read, my friend. He has said the other option available to him was to take all of the characters half way – to which, of course, the obvious response is: isn’t that what you’d been doing in all of the books previous? And what did he mean by ‘half way’ really? There are apparently to be seven books in the Song of Ice & Fire series, so each book moves the action along somewhat without any real sense of the finishing line. A reordering of both A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons (as will inevitably happen with the TV show) makes for a better read – and so I did it. If you’re ploughing through A Feast for Crows now, I’d treat yourself to a chapter from A Dance with Dragons every two or three chapters – provided you don’t exceed the 500 page mark, or so, on A Dance with Dragons, you’ll enjoy A Feast for Crows more, believe me). -from hereAFFC & ADWD Combined Chapters OrderAFFC 02: The Prophet ADWD 01: Prologue AFFC 01: Prologue AFFC 12: The Kraken's Daughter ADWD 03: Daenerys 1 AFFC 19: The Iron Captain AFFC 20: The Drowned Man ADWD 04: Jon 1 AFFC 04: Cersei 1 AFFC 08: Cersei 2 AFFC 09: Jaime 1 ADWD 05: Bran 1 AFFC 03: The Captain Of Guards AFFC 05: Brienne 1 ADWD 13: Reek 1 AFFC 10: Brienne 2 AFFC 14: The Soiled Knight ADWD 10: Davos 1 AFFC 22: The Queenmaker AFFC 15: Brienne 3 ADWD 16: Davos 2 AFFC 13: Cersei 3 ADWD 20: Davos 3 AFFC 17: Jaime 2 AFFC 18: Cersei 4 ADWD 02: Tyrion 1 AFFC 07: Arya 1 ADWD 21: Reek 2 AFFC 21: Brienne 4 ADWD 06: Tyrion 2 AFFC 25: Cersei 5 ADWD 09: Tyrion 3 AFFC 41: The Princess In The Tower ADWD 07: The Merchant's Man AFFC 29: Cersei 6 ADWD 12: Daenerys 2 AFFC 30: The Reaver ADWD 14: Bran 2 AFFC 28: Jaime 3 AFFC 33: Cersei 7 ADWD 15: Tyrion 4 AFFC 26: Brienne 5 AFFC 11: Sansa 1 ADWD 17: Daenerys 3 AFFC 31: Jaime 4 ADWD 19: Tyrion 5 AFFC 32: Brienne 6 AFFC 06: Samwell 1 ADWD 08: Jon 2 AFFC 38: Brienne 7 ADWD 11: Jon 3 ADWD 18: Jon 4 AFFC 34: Jaime 5 ADWD 22: Jon 5 AFFC 39: Jaime 6 ADWD 23: Tyrion 6 AFFC 16: Samwell 2 ADWD 24: Daenerys 4 AFFC 43: Brienne 8 ADWD 25: The Lost Lord AFFC 24: Alayne 1 ADWD 26: The Windblown AFFC 37: Cersei 8 ADWD 27: The Wayward Bride ADWD 28: Tyrion 7 AFFC 40: Cersei 9 ADWD 29: Jon 6 AFFC 44: Cersei 10 ADWD 30: Davos 4 AFFC 42: Alayne 2 ADWD 31: Daenerys 5 AFFC 45: Jaime 7 ADWD 32: Melisandre ADWD 33: Reek 3 AFFC 23: Arya 2 ADWD 34: Tyrion 8 AFFC 27: Samwell 3 ADWD 35: Bran 3 AFFC 36: Samwell 4 ADWD 36: Jon 7 AFFC 46: Samwell 5 ADWD 37: Daenerys 6 AFFC 35: Cat Of The Canals ADWD 39: The Watcher ADWD 40: Jon 8 ADWD 41: Tyrion 9 ADWD 42: The Turncloak ADWD 43: The King's Prize ADWD 44: Daenerys 7 ADWD 45: Jon 9 ADWD 46: The Blind Girl ADWD 47: A Ghost In Winterfell ADWD 48: Tyrion 10 ADWD 62: The Griffin Reborn ADWD 49: Jaime ADWD 50: Jon 10 ADWD 51: Daenerys 8 ADWD 52: Theon ADWD 53: Daenerys 9 ADWD 54: Jon 11 ADWD 55: Cersei 1 ADWD 56: The Queensguard ADWD 57: The Iron Suitor ADWD 58: Tyrion 11 ADWD 59: Jon 12 ADWD 60: The Discarded Knight ADWD 61: The Spurned Suitor ADWD 63: The Sacrifice ADWD 64: Victarion ADWD 65: The Ugly Little Girl ADWD 66: Cersei 2 ADWD 67: Tyrion 12 ADWD 69: The Dragontamer ADWD 68: The Kingbreaker ADWD 70: Jon 13 ADWD 71: The Queen's Hand ADWD 72: Daenerys 10 ADWD 73: EpilogueThe Winds of Winter (due – oh, 2016?) and all subsequent books will unravel with all characters therein.

At a snowed-in retreat, a corporate takeover turns deadlyA remote mansion, a blizzard, and lack of phone service: It's an opportunity a killer can't pass up. Matt Cobb, the in-house troubleshooter for a television conglomerate, is summoned to an executive meeting at the Adirondack home of billionaire G. B. Dost. Dost plans to acquire the TV network, and the shareholders are anxious about the rich man's intentions. One of the bigwigs might even prefer murder to a takeover. Sure enough, the morning before negotiations would start, Dost is discovered dead outside his lodge—surrounded by forty feet of smooth, unbroken snow—and Cobb is faced with the task of interrogating guests. And matters are only complicated by Dost's psychic wife, his off-kilter son, and a haunting message somehow relayed on a television found to be unplugged. Views: 70
This is the graphic, first-hand story of the maiden voyage and disastrous sinking of the RMS Titanic, told by the survivors themselves. The story of the sinking of the great liner has been told countless times since that fateful night on April 14, 1912, by historians, novelists, and film producers alike, but no account is as graphic or revealing as those from the people who were actually there. Through survivors' tales and contemporary newspaper reports from both sides of the Atlantic, here are eyewitness accounts full of details that range from poignant to humorous, stage by stage from the liner's glorious launch in Belfast to the somber sea burial services of those who perished on her first and only voyage. In this book, the voices of the survivors share their own stories, as well as the official records, press reports, and investigations into what went wrong that night. Views: 70
