    After you finish the series

Check, depressingly soon.

    first read Dunk and Egg

Check.

    The World of Ice & Fire

Wish-listed, out of audible credits for the month.

    The Princess and the Queen

No audiobook, which presents an obstacle.

    Tower of the Hand

May investigate, after world of ice & fire.

    Then and only then will you realize that you actually only thought you read the series the first time; clearly everyone else read it better. So you'll launch a reread.

Already hit this state by book 3 after watching this amazing youtube channel. The clicking point for me was when I realized the maesters, who I'd just viewed as side / supporting characters, had their own set of plots, full intel, and complete control of the ravens.

    It also has gorgeous pictures.

Trust me on this one. For the castles alone.

Missed that, I may grab both. I got a used copy of ADwD as well just for the maps and the sprawling appendix. Currently in need of more bookshelf space in my house though...
