Excellent stuff. If you think you are waiting too long for The Winds of Winter and the fourth Dunk and Egg novella and the World of Ice and Fire encyclopedia or if you feel like your life needs more Ice and Fire in order to fully function (I am guilty of both charges), then you have the utmost obligation to check this one out.

A great testament by the (super)fans to the Ice and Fire saga. Theories, some of them are arguably crackpot, are explained with such, admittedly, vast research and thus high commitment. It inspires me to write some essays myself someday, because there is just no end to speculations about the characters and the events. Martin gives us so much to imagine, to think, to discuss, to write and to fight (read: argue) about. Damn, now I sound like one of the essayists (which is awesome).

All in all, it's always great to read stuff from the main resource sites of Ice and Fire in one package: Tower of The Hand, A Podcast of Ice and Fire (Mimi and Amin's works are among my faves here), Winter is Coming and even Inn at the Crossroads. Great job of combining those bannermen. I wish I could read something from Westeros's Elio and Linda too. Maybe for the next edition? *crossing my fingers*
