    I don't have Prime.

    I did a search and came up with Prime which I do not have since they charge for it.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    You've read all three Dunk & Egg novellas, right? They were collected into one book, A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms.

    I've given up on predicting what Martin will finish. I'd guess that the second book of Fire And Blood will be completed because he's probably just converting the notes he's been compiling into "history books." I think he's also probably close enough to finishing the next book in the main cycle that that will probably come out soon-ish. Beyond that--I think it's a complete mystery.

    well, the easy way to solve the problem is to detonate the bomb before her friends arrive. I figure that will be the solution if she asked for a raise for next season

    What what? He actually died? I think I missed that. I just read that he was kicked off the show for multiple harassment and misconduct allegations and was hastily wrote off the show.

    Also next season will be the last. That is a bummer, with the ring and new worlds they could have this series go on forever with unlimited spin offs

    Next season will be the last for a while.

    They do have a plan to start it back up in 5 to 10 years.

    That's better but why wait? This has stargate and star trek potential.

    It's a natural break in the story. It picks up decades later.

    The first few episodes are a little slow because there are multiple plot lines that are being laid out. But go with it, it's some great story telling.
