The whole crew back together again! The feels!
On the point of spoilers, I agree that anything in a GRRM prequel or novella is fair game. But Worlds of Ice and Fire is written by Elio and Linda….

I was under the impression it was written by GRRM and just fact checked by Elio & Linda.

I believe that grrm has written some of it, and that elio and linda have written the rest based on grrm laying out the general idea.

It’s the other way around for most parts, a few parts GRRM wrote. Regardless it all goes through GRRM. Congrats on the reunion.

So if it’s canon in GRRM’s eyes then it’s asoiaf canon. Sounds good to me. Can’t wait!

I haven’t read the excerpt, but what theory did it disprove?

It was like a Beatles reunion(well except john and george being dead). You don’t care if they flummox the notes some, it’s the overall package that counts. And the manticore porn.

You definitely did owe us an apology, but at the same time I wouldn’t have it any other way. Great to have the crew back.

Fun episode! Great to have all four of you together again, no matter how rusty or awkward or disgusting… 🙂 Really looking forward to more book recaps with the whole group after the GoT season ends.
And we do miss you, Mimi!
