HEY! Guess what! I have one of these (two actually). Erin and I went to the signing of A Dance With Dragons in Kentucky last August. I've even got the DJ (for one of them any way) and the admission ticket from the event plus some pics of me with the guy himself.

Cool. I've got 2 of those also (of which one is available).
Becca, is the Game of Thrones ARC the unpublished state for the true 1st edition, or is it for another version? It looks cool (I have a soft spot for proofs and ARCs).
As far as I know it is. It's an uncorrected proof for the 1st 1996 US hardcover edition. The artwork was completely changed obviously. I've seen quite a few missing the dust jacket. The only other I know of is the UK proof that I think has a red cover. I'm not sure they did proofs for reissued states - at least I haven't seen any.
Here is a link that lists all the editions w/ pics through Feast. The prices are quite a bit out of date though as the blog was written in 2006.

I have threee arcs from Bantom and one from voyager. Plus a slew of US first editions, Only one set of UK first editions. Those suckers are hard to find!

So that's where they all went. :drool:
Wow.
Very impressive, you guys!
I've read the first two books in the Ice and Fire series, and I am loving it! The problem is that now I want signed first editions.
They keep going up in price! Im thinking as long as HBO keeps running with it, that will continue. You can still get Feast of crows and Dance with dragons pretty cheap but the rest are getting pricey.
I keep meaning to give this series a try.
This story is fantastic. The amount of characters is staggering and they are developed so well. I would put this on par with my favorite epic fantasy adventure, Lord of the rings. very captivating!
I think I'll pick up a cheap paperback payday and check it out. I'm really not big on like hardcore fantasy though which is sorta what I'm understanding it to be. Tolkien is about the only real fantasy I like. I'll give it a try though. I have heard LOTS of good things about it.
Hey Brice, I'm with you. I just started reading the series the past couple months for the first time because of listening to everyone saying how good it is over the past few years. It's worth checking out.
I will pick it up Thursday. I figure about $5 for a paperback isn't too much. If it's not my thing; I can just pass it on to someone else. If I love it I can just talk to our friend above about selling one of those first editions. It's not like he'd notice having one less. :lol:
