The Real Jon Snow video is 90% done, but I want to improve the conclusion – how will Jon Snow’s story end? To better understand how ASOIAF might end, I’m studying George Martin’s other works.

In the 80s, George published a sci fi series called Tuf Voyaging, about the adventures of an eccentric bio-engineer named Haviland Tuf. Tuf loves cats and beer, wields godlike power, and faces thorny ethical dilemmas. And in George’s long history of unfinished tales, Tuf Voyaging is the closest he’s gotten to actually completing a series.

Tuf Voyaging and ASOIAF share a lot of common themes, character tropes, and ideas. So comparing the two stories is fascinating, and might give hints at the ending of ASOIAF...

This video is a summary and analysis of Tuf Voyaging in comparison to ASOIAF. I hope you enjoy!

Happy holidays, and thanks for your support :)
