Coiling Dragon has a total of 806 chapters if WW charges 3c/ch then if we multiply that by 806 we get U$ 24.18.

Now If we compare it with some blockbuster novels we can see the difference in price

|Novel|Word Count|Complete novel price (Amazon)|Price per Word|
|:-|:-|:-|:-|
|Harry Potter| 1,085,000|U$ 68.17|0.00006|
|Game of Thrones| 1,736,000|U$ 34.49|0.00002|

The total word count of Coiling Dragon is approximately 1,874,000. If we do the same calculation but using the price of 3c/ch then we get this:

|Novel|Word Count|Complete novel price (Aprox)|Price per Word|
|:-|:-|:-|:-|
|Coilin Dragon|1,874,000|U$ 24.18|0.00001|

So from my point of view, that price is completely acceptable.

It is always best to approach any kind of activity with a “moderation” mind set, including video games. If you are concerned that your child is spending too many hours sat in front of a screen playing video games during their free time, you could try to find some inspiration from the games that they play for other kinds of activities. For example, if they like playing sports games maybe they would like to join a team sport? Or attend a live sporting event? If your children like fantasy games, maybe they would like to work on a costume for Halloween next year inspired by their favorite character? Or perhaps they could be enticed to delve in to some fantasy novels such as The Hobbit or A Song of Ice and Fire?

I had bought this same version a while ago for around $50 but I think it’s on sale.

u/arnoldlol · 5 pointsr/gameofthrones

Here's a link to a box set of all 5, also on Amazon.

u/bfraid · 4 pointsr/pureasoiaf

Thanks, I'm looking. Problem is, that the cheap versions are some HBO edition crap with pictures from the show on the cover.

u/ianstlawrence · 4 pointsr/rational

Reading the books is maybe too obvious of a suggestion here, but, you know, they have even more world building in them. Although right now the books end at book 5 which is roughly season 4 or season 5 of the show I believe.

u/rhinguin · 4 pointsr/gameofthrones

I’m gonna ask a question, hopefully it’s not dumb. I just bought a set on amazon but it was only 5 books. Am I getting the whole story here?

u/dm244 · 4 pointsr/gameofthrones

I too am poor, but I do work at a bookstore and you can get a solid price on the books by buying the mass market box set. Amazon sells it for $30 online.

u/cdRAGE · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones
u/rwitucki · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

Mass Market Paperback is probably your best bet if you want a physical copy. As for e-reader, that link has poor reviews because all 5 books are combined into 1.

u/vertigo1083 · 2 pointsr/funny

You can get the entire set for $30 shipped.

Kindle for only $20.

u/Chicago31 · 2 pointsr/pureasoiaf

Just get this. They're cheap and you'll tear through the books without caring what they look like. They're fine to read. When the series is over, buy a box set.

u/dishler712 · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

Starting on the 29th they're also going to include ADWD in a box set as well.

u/Turboboxer · 2 pointsr/asoiaf

I did the Audiobooks first but I was so hooked I read them too. Cheap on Amazon for the paperback collection

Great for referencing

u/s2xtreme4u · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

The Narnia series. I read this series over and over as a child. Its the reason I read so much today. I had read books before that series but I wansnt into reading untill I read this series. It just had everything I was into at the time, Travel, adventure, danger, fictional characters. It also paved the way for me to be into book series more than single books. I think they can go into more detail and make you feel like your part of the story more than one book can and when they are over you almost feel as if a part of you is over. Like its a part of your past life.

a few of my favorite series are:

LOTR

The earths childrens series which is my favorite

The song of ice and fire

The touchstone trilogy


u/srhgrc · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I know how you feel :[ but upbeat music helps.. usually this one works for me. Oh, and cats and snuggles.

What makes me feel better

If you want to post this deal, use a plain link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0345535529/

u/fjm182 · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I only have 3 suggestions:

  • Google Cardboard! because before spending $500+ you need to know if VR suits your taste (and to know what's all the hype about).
  • A song of Ice and Fire if you have read them or not, these set is almost perfect for any GOT fan (almost because no 6th book yet).
  • 2TB External Hard Drive because there's no such thing as "having too much storage space"
u/Mardread · 1 pointr/Oathsworn

I haven't read anything good in years and the things I have read are usually due to finding new books for my kids or reading the books that have been adapted to tv/film.

One of my all time favorite series was from Robin Hobb. Starting with Assassin's Apprentice. This was a difficult read for me at the time, but I loved the story behind the characters.

I started reading less fantasy after reading Stieg Larsson's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Millennial Series. I read these after watching the original films. It is fantastic. Just don't buy the fourth book, it wasn't even written by him as he has been dead for a while now.

A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin. I didn't start reading those until Game of Thrones premiered on HBO.

Now for some really old school, Dragonlance by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. The fourth book came out years later and was fantastic. I have read more than a few of the side stories, but the main books are the best in my opinion, probably would not hold up well today.

Currently, I have The Martian by Andy Weir and Promise of Blood by Brian McClellan waiting for me to read.

The Five People You meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom is a book that I consider a must read. I don't consider it a spiritual book, but it did change my perspective on how I view my life in this world.

u/NotYourDadsMemes · 1 pointr/scifi

You can get the mass paper back editions in a set on amazon fairly cheap, unless you’re a hardback junkie (totally understandable).GoT series on Amazon

u/mz80 · 1 pointr/Fantasy

I can recommend:

  • The Demon Cycle by Peter V. Brett has a really nice and different world compared to other fantasy series and I'm really mesmerized by the story. 4 books


  • Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. The Wheel of Time has 14 books, so it might be more than what you are looking for. But the story is insane, except for 1-2 books that were slightly boring.

  • A Song of Ice and Fire. You have probably read it, but since you didn't list it, I thought I'd recommend it anyways. Amazing fantasy world, but with Game of Thrones being everywhere, you know of this one. 5 books (not finished yet)

  • I also like the Eragon-series, but it's not for everyone and might be not as "grown up" as the others. Eragon by Christopher Paolini. 4 books
u/doktorjackofthemoon · 1 pointr/freefolk

Read them!!! Even if it doesn't get finished, its still debatably some of the best literature of our generation and gives SO much insight into the story and the characters. Especially in the fifth book, there is a ton of plot points and awesome characters that never made it to the show. I imagine reading it now would be a nice bit of healing/closure after the catastrophe of S8

Only $35 for all five on Amazon -

u/thndrchld · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon
  1. Done.
  2. Ooh I'm burning through the sky yeah! Two hundred degrees -- That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
  3. 3? 3. 3!
  4. A Night of Queen
  5. 3 again?
  6. This has a queen -- Daenerys, of course.

    ^^^^^Bee!
u/adragonisnoslave · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I have to recommend A Song of Ice and Fire! They'll keep you busy forever.

u/littlebutmighty · 1 pointr/booksuggestions

I highly recommend:

  1. The Orphans of Chaos trilogy by John C. Wright. He really pushes the boundaries of the imagination by writing about a universe in which there are 4 different paradigms of magic/power, each of which cancels one of the others out and is canceled out by one of the others. It's an epic Titans vs Olympic Gods fantasy, and I've read it several times--which is rare for me to do.

  2. Obviously read the Song of Ice and Fire series by George RR Martin if you haven't already done so! I delayed reading it a long time but then read all of them in a week and a half when I finally succumbed.

  3. ALWAYS recommend The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss

  4. ALSO always recommend Lies of Locke Lamora and its sequels by Scott Lynch.

  5. The Abhorsen trilogy by Garth Nix. It's YA, but pretty mature YA, and IMO could easily transition to the regular fantasy section.

  6. Books by Diana Wynne Jones. She writes YA, but fantasy that I wouldn't call immature. The best word I could use to describe it would be "whimsical." If I could compare her style of fantasy to anyone's it would EASILY be the filmmaker Miyazaki. (His films include Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, Porco Rosso, etc.--he even adapted one of her books!) I think her best work is her Chrestomanci series which has 3 volumes (each volume is made up of several novellas), but she is best known for Howl's Moving Castle, which I also highly recommend (along with its sequels Castle in the Air and The House of Many Ways).

  7. Jim Butcher's Dresden Files series. It's fun, original, often dark, often humorous, fast-paced, and FILLED with action. As noted by someone else, there are vampires in the universe, but they're not the central motif. There are also other scary things, like fairies, goblins, witches/wizards, demons...the list goes on and on.

  8. Terry Pratchett's Discworld canon. There are many, MANY books, and they're not written in series so you can jump in almost anywhere. I recommend Small Gods to start.

  9. The Sevenwaters Trilogy by Juliet Marillier, starting with Daughter of the Forest. There are also spin-off novels, though I haven't read them all. Her writing is beautiful and mystical. She almost makes me believe magic/fae could exist.

  10. The Passion and The Promise (a duet) and, separately, The Alchemist by Donna Boyd. These are really, really excellently written. "Lush" would be the word I'd use. They're not hugely well known, and I find that utterly boggling considering how good they are.
u/figar36012 · 0 pointsr/CozyPlaces

I'm pretty sure that it's this one, got the same paperback set but from a different online vendor.

u/howmanymeninthenorth · -6 pointsr/asoiaf

I'm pretty sure they are published. I've read them all numerous times. Here's a link to Amazon. Really good deal for the book set.
