I haven't looked through this much but it seems pretty kul. I'm sure some book nerds and show nerds will enjoy looking through it. It's a collection in an imgur album of the history of Westeros:

Quote
George R.R. Martin did an amazing job of building thousands of years of thought out history to support all of his wonderful characters and bring his books to life. Fans of the books get a glimpse of this rich history in much more detail than those who have only enjoyed the show so I decided to compile an album sharing some of the history of Westeros.

This album will not have spoilers! These are all things that happened pre-books/show.

I thought for a second you were referring to this, which I want when it comes out!

Mind you it's another book that's deterring him from finishing the overall series! >:(

This is pretty cool. Apparently HBO released a bunch of animated shorts narrated by the actors from the POV of their characters, all about the history of Westeros. Someone spliced them all together and threw music over it

This makes me really want a prequel about Aerys Targaryen. He's such a nut. Him killing Ned's father and brother is crazy

I think it would be a rare occasion were the prequels would be just as good as the original series with GoT.

Seeing Robert rebellion, Jamie killing Aerys etc, that's stuff I want to see! Maybe in flashbacks on the show, but that would be difficult to do without it feeling out of place. I have no doubt if they finish the series without any hitches, a prequel would be very likely somewhere down the line.
