science vs romance dot net: A new reader–friendly combined reading order for A Feast for Crows & A Dance with Dragons
Here’s a picture of how nicely Sean Collins’s [new-reader-friendly combined Feast/Dance] guide organizes the reading experience — decent chunks of each book in monotonic order with only one forward/backward jump in each to preserve a minor cross-volume plot revelation:
