@Tyrion Lannister No nevím, mě tedy poměrně štve, že vydal 20% knihy v uveřejněných kapitolách. Je to jako filmy k nimž máš 10 trailerů před uveřejněním, a lidé se pak diví, že v samotném filmu už pak nic zajímavého neviděli.
@brbr No ty kapitoly nám toho tolik závratného neřekli spíše navnadily na zbytek knihy. Kdyby zveřejnil kapitolu, kde železní bojují v námořní bitvě ... atd spíš to by vadilo
Zdravím, nevím jestli tu už je odkaz, ale chtěl jsem pochválit Martina za novou knihu. Ve středu jsem si koupil Ledového draka a vypadá to suprově. Zatím jsem se sice nedostal ke čtení, ale ilustrace od Luise Royoa jsou nádherné. Děj by prý měl být příběh který Stará chůva vyprávěla Jonu na Zimohradu, když byl malý.
The Barristan Selmy chapter begin with Ser Barristan riding Danery's silver horse and his Queensguard armor while preparing the defenses of Meereen against the Yunkai'I forces. He is reviewing the defenses with his commanders including Widower, Jokin and Grey Worm while plague infected bodies are being catapulted into the city. Barristan gives a speech to motivate his men. Apparently the first Barristan Selmy chapter will be followed by a Victarion Greyjoy and a Tyrion Lannister chapter. Tyrion is apparently being held captive by at the time by Plumm and is quite miserable.
The second Barristan Selmy chapter in "Winds of Winter" will pick up just at the start of the Battle of Meeren as Selmy leads the fight to strike the first blow against Yunkai'I forces. His forces are made up of not just the mercenaries and the Unsullied, but also pitfighters. Barristan's goal in sallying out is to destroy the trebuchets that are flinging the plague ridden corpses into the city. At this point Barristan's forces seem to have gotten the advantage and broken the weakest links in the slaver armies. At the same time he sees that the Greyjoy fleet led by Victarion have arrived and pull into Slavers Bay at this point Ser Barristan believes they have won saying, "It's like Baelor Breakspear and Prince Maekar, the hammer and the anvil. We have them! We have them!" At this point it might almost be safe to say the city of Meereen is saved provided Victarion doesn't betray Selmy. Remember that he thinks that he is coming to the aid of Danerys who is out on the Dothraki Sea with Drogon. Lets not forget the notoriously fickle loyalty of the sellswords, both the Stormcrows and Second Sons are likely to switch sides. There's also the element of the dragon horn and what will happen if Vicatarion blows it, can he really take control of the dragons?
It shouldn't be a big "Winds of Winter" spoiler that the start of the new book will pick up from the cliffhangers of the old books, "Obviously, I'm going to continue the story. There were a lot of cliffhangers at the end of A Dance with Dragons. Those will be resolved very early. I'm going to open with the two big battles that I was building up to, the battle in the ice and the battle at Meereen-the battle of Slaver's Bay. And then take it from there." In an interview Martin also said that "Winds of Winter" would feature more of the Others, likely as part of the battle in the ice, "Well, I don't want to give too much away, but you're definitely going to see more of the Others in The Winds of Winter."
While we do have good "Winds of Winter" spoilers in the form of all the sample chapters that have been released and educated fan speculation, there is still no real consensus on the "Winds of Winter" release date aside from George Martin saying that he is working on it and would like fans to stop pressuring him about it, "Sometimes I just wish [the fans] would stop pressuring me about it. It will be done when it's done. [...] I'm a slow writer, I've always been a slow writer, and these are gigantic books." He also acknowledged that the HBO show was rapidly catching up with him so that he would have to write faster, "as [Game of Thrones] comes closer and closer, I need to go faster and faster." On top of that Martin also left open the possibility that the series may go beyond seven books, "I think it will be [finished] in seven books, but I've been wrong about that before."
@Tyrion Lannister No tky by mi nevadilo, kdyby vydal třeba i 200 stránkovou knihu jako navnadění jen část co má a počítá s ní a zbytek at vydá klidně za rok
Takze Martin sa teraz vyjadril, ze chce Vichry vydat pred premierou siestej serie, co potvrdil aj jeho vydavatel ako target date. Takze 2016 nabera realnejsie kontury. Hopefully.
:dance: Tak mě napadá, dokážete někdo poradit, jak připravit svoje anglické znalosti na přečtení knihy v originále? Anglicky jsem přečetla jenom kapitolu Alayne z Vichrů a celkem jsem to zvládala, jediné, čemu jsem nerozuměla, byl ten vtip s kořením. Jinak jsem v originále taky přečetla 7. díl Harryho Pottera, ale to asi není úplně srovnatelné, a taky ještě pár takových "casual" knih.
