This is another spinoff thread, that I thought deserved its own topic. We love her, we hate her, we love to hate her. What will become of such a central character to the series?

I can't think of many "Blackwater" level scenes, but I have a couple: War at the Wall: Season 4 Escape of the Dragons and destruction of Mereen: Season 5 or 6 -- Edited by Cary Storm on...

To prevent spoilers, one can feel free to put Catelyn Tully in a separate thread. Since we don't have the luxury of her POV it occurs to me that there are some definite facts to be considered here: I realized that she must assuredly know that Arya is not in King's Landing any longer, becuase Beric and Tho...

So, what do you think GRRM has in store for her? Personally, I think Jon's line in AGoT could be a case of foreshadowing. You'll be sewing all through winter. When the spring thaw comes, they will find your body with a needle still locked tight between your frozen fingers. Normally, I wouldn't have...

In a recent interview, GRRM said the following: "Fire is love, fire is passion, fire is sexual ardor and all of these things. Ice is betrayal, ice is revenge, ice is… you know, that kind of cold inhumanity and all that stuff is being played out in the books." Which is very interesting answer,...

While reading the books, we all have certain POVs that, independant of how attached we feel to their characters, and what we think of them, are the ones we most look forward to reading.

Even if we know GRRM already said he won't be adding new POVs (except for prologues/epilogues), let's dream a bit. Whose POV would you have liked to read? All characters included, alive/dead/undead.
