It was used earlier in the series too by Stannis' hand (ex now) if you remember.Done, though I don't think a link by itself is a spoiler.
Well now I know the poison's name

It's described in the prologue chapter of A Clash of Kings.[DOUBLEPOST=1397750471][/DOUBLEPOST]An excerpt from The World of Ice and Fire, a companion book for the series. It's a chapter about Aegon's Conquest. The Unsullied TV viewers can read it too; no spoilers.

As if the series wasn't detailed enough, GRRM goes ahead and writes a more detailed companion book
Is he trying to create a parallel world in his head?

Finished "A Feast for Crows". Started "A Dance with Dragons".
One thing I loved about Feast for Crows:
One thing I loved about Feast for Crows:
It was such a treat watching Cersei get imprisoned. When you look back at everything she did, she thought she was being really clever all along when she was actually being incredibly stupid.
Also, hated the fact that Catelyn hanged Brienne. I hope she hasn't actually died yet and returns in a Dance with Dragons.
Overall, feast for crows was inferior to the other books, but still a great read!

Reading a Dance with Dragons and watching Season 4 at the same time. Season 4 so far is mindblowing!
When you read the books and watch the show at the same time, you fully realize the strengths and weaknesses of each medium. For example:

The assault on Meereen as I remember it in the book wasn't that interesting... in fact I think that it was described by Daenerys only after it happened. But on the show, it was absolutely epic! I re-watched that single scene about five times.
OTOH, some great things about the book could never be replicated in the show. For example, you could never describe Tyrion's feelings about Tysha in the show, because it all happens in his head. I think that's why they converted Shae into a real character to replace Tysha, rather than her being just a whore

this also potentially takes away from the later scene where she gets stripped naked and paraded by the septon

The final minutes of the last episode were a treat for all book readers. A bit confusing though. Complete surprise since the PoV chapters don't cover that.
They've also diverted the Bran storyline significantly. The leaves are only going to fall further from the tree now. Such a disappointment.
