    Yeah its going to be tight for him to finish in 2 more. Especially if he doesn't tighten things up. ADWD seemed long winded (even for him)

    How awesome were Bran's chapters in ADWD? They were few but his chapters really felt like a fantasy novel more so than the others.

    Arya and Bran are usually my favorite cause they seem to have that fantasy feel that the rest of the books dont. the dragons seem more like a prop and melisandra and the like just remind me of fanatical religious whack jobs, though both are fantasy elements, they dont come across that way to me.

    but coldhands and the 3 eyed crow... and when bran met him for the first time, just awesome. it was a total 'oh here we go!' moment. instead of the normal feel of the books where anyone could die, it felt like anything could be possible.

    fuck yeah ... got excited when a new chapter came up and it would be him ... the best part of his chapters are that hodor (who i've come to adore ... in a very manly way ... hahaha) and jojen and meera are cool characters too who fit perfectly with his story ... throw in cold hands and summer and you got minimal characters and more action ...

    a yahoo comment ... on the question of "is jon snow dead" ...

    *************************
    He was stabbed 4 freaking times, yes he's dead. If he's in the next book, it'll be as a wolf. A fricking wolf.

    Stupid Martin already killed off everyone good and then only gives 3 chapters of Arya and Bran, kills Jon Snow, and possibly Stannis, but leaves his beloved annoying, stupid, girly little $@*&! called "Dan", dedicating over 80% of the bloody book to the sl*t, retard Turncloak, and other annoying, dumb characters.

    Now we wait another 6 years for what? More of the ugly Dragon C**t. Screw you Martin. Screw you.

    :lol::lol::lol:

    Mayhaps a bit more melodramatically than I would have put it, but a little part of me agrees in spirit.


    ....not going to stop me from watching the whole HBO series and probably rereading some of the books though...

    I loved how he was going to have him hung and then said no wait... bring me my sword! The entire time i was thinking he shouldn't hang him he should do it himself and then he did :D

    I was actually disapointed in Joffrey's death. I wish it would have been a bit more gruesome. I mean he deserved the death of all deaths that little shit

    you have a point it is a pretty fitting end :lol:

    I would have loved to see someone whip him in a fight and kill him. A Stark like Arya but that would not have been logical or Sansa do something to get some kind of revenge but that was very unlikely

    Jamie's transformation
    and of course

    The red wedding. That should be crazy

    sooo ... outside of bolton (who is gonna have a very gruesome death to be sure) ... there really is no "bad guy" in the conventional term ... there are so many factions out there with all of them not totally all good or all bad ...

    will it continue like that or are we gonna see something like the Others finally wreak havoc and everyone having to unite against them?

    I would not be surprised if the others are almost like indians who were pushed off their land and have been silent for awhile and are just now rearing their head up to take back what was theirs long ago.

    we've determined that choking/poisoned at your own wedding just after being mocked by your dwarf uncle and not getting to "bed" margaery was reasonably cruel ... :lol:
