WARNING: COMMENTS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR BOOK 3.

So I have finished A Storm of Swords by George R.R. Martin. Yes, because I am a glutton for punishment. Not sure I could go for the next one (it wasn't in Hastings in paperback), but will probably buy it when I go up to Tucson this next weekend.

I have a problem, you see. I get attached to characters, even ones who aren't real. I cried for Alistair McKeon, Michael Havel, Walter Blythe. I didn't cry for the crew of the Excalibur, but I did throw that book against the wall.

I got attached to some of Martin's characters, although you would think I would have learned by the end of Book One, when treachery and dishonesty killed the honorable man, but no.

Basically, does anyone know who we are supposed to root for in the series? Almost all of my candidates have been killed.

Don't read if you don't want to know who dies in book 3: Read more... )

Anyway, I'm going to read some lighter stuff this week, thanks much.
