Found this on Amazon. Anyone has info on what George Martin's Thread of Excellence is about? whistling

I can't read any posts here for another year at best, so please PM me if you know, thanks!

I definitely do not think Brienne is dead. I also have no idea what the magic word she said was. Perhaps it was a name, and not a word?

I agree with those who think the "young queen" who has been prophesized to destroy Cersei is Dany. It just seems to make a lot of sense.

Also, Jaime's character does seem to be turning a lot more to an oathkeeper now. He's annoyed at being remembered as the Kingslayer, and seems to be trying to be loyal - even though nobody trusts him. I think he'll have a large role in whatever ends up happening in the storyline.

No way Brienne is dead. Lady Catelyn will come to her sense at the end.

I'd rather like to see her die, simply because it shocked the hell out of me.

Brienne's still alive. She saved herself at the last second by saying "Sword" and thereby taking up an oath to kill Jaime.

And Catelyn ain't coming to her senses. She always was nasty, but the whole watching her son be murdered, then getting killed and brought back to life as a walking corpse has really done her in.

The current choices are: Sword, Arya or Stannis (the last one harking back to the promise that Cat made to Brienne in ACOK regarding her killing Stannis for Renly's death...)

I have a question: is Cersei the older twin?

I think so. I think this was mentioned in Feast...and I think I remember it being mentioned in another book, but I have absolutely no idea where.

That's what I thought, but I wasn't going to trek through 5000 pages to find it happy

My reason for asking is that it gives Cersei two little brothers instead of just Tyrion...

Oh!! Holy crap, I didn't even think of that. How dumb am I! That is an extremely good point, and a very plausibly story line, since Jamie is so upset at her.

Wow, wouldn't that shock the hell out of her??

Just looking for some proof on the birthing thing online, i read a post by sommone who suggested that possibly Tommen was to be the little brother. But that would mean the phrophecy said the little brother, not her little brother. But who knows? I think both would be deliciously sweet.

It is the good theory! It is known that Jamie no longer cares for Cersei. Tyrion is also far away, likely.

We also had Jaime comparing Cersei's recent behaviour (esp the burning) to Aerys, and she seemed to be descending into extreme paranoia.

The main evidence against it in my mind is that Jaime counts his honour for a lot, and killing his sister + regent would be a massive stain against it.

Still...I can dream.
