The Paddock

No kidding, right? Of course he doesn't know Arya is his sister... yet, or maybe never. Haven't gotten that far yet. I like how she's either always calling someone stupid or asking if they are stupid. Did you also notice that Brienne watched the ship that Arya was on sail to Bravvos? I forgot the name of the town. Maybe Maidenpool. But it mentioned Brienne watching The Titan's Daughter setting sail, and that was the ship Arya was on. If I'm not mistaken. A lot of talk about this mega wolfpack led by a devil she-wolf. No doubt that's Nymeria and that pack will come into play somewhere. I said during the very first season and way before I started reading the books that I bet Nymeria isn't gone forever and that I bet she will show back up when Arya needs her most. I'm sticking with that.

I completely missed that about Brienne. Ah, so close...

Mike, as I told Carl Feastwas my least favorite book. It's good, just not as good as the others.

I'm liking it. I'm getting close to the end. There are some really good parts in it. You get to see Cersei start to go mad which is pretty good. Stop reading now unless you want a spoiler... k? We good? Have you stopped reading now? Ok.

Nate I just got to a part where I think Cersei makes her worst and perhaps last huge folly. She just agreed to let the septons arm themselves. Whether it's this world or George Martins world there's one thing I know... Do Not Arm The Religious Nutjobs!!! I'm starting to like Pycelle. He's going against Cersei on everything. I think I'm starting to see some of Vary's web working in the council. I also noticed something else that might have been Varys' doing. Jaime figured it out but I can't remember what it was. Brain fart. And Cersei's new friend, Lady Merriweather. I'm not so sure she's such a friend. Perhaps a double agent.

Get to ADWD so we can talk, dammit!

Hahaha.. I just got to the part where Cersei wants Kevan to be the Hand to the King... That old bastard has balls.

Yup. I think it was Jamie's POV where he thinks that thanks to Tywin Kevan has been groomed to follow.

They get bigger lol He throws shit in Cersei's and Jaime's face. I like him now.

Ah, I loved Davos. To bad Manderly killed him.

That is some great dialogue. So did you read about the guy digging the graves? Was that in that chapter?

Oh and I don't think The Hound is the one that attacked that village. Jaime doesn't think so either. I'm wondering who did it and why they pretended they were The Hound. The way these brothers are acting every time they learn that Brienne is looking for him makes me think they may be hiding him. Maybe they found him and healed him. Maybe he took the faith. Maybe he'll be the leader of the new warrior septons. I'm reaching but it's not so far out of reach.

Ok now I finished that Brienne chapter and I'm covinced the Hound is alive. Yeah the head Septon guy said he died and he buried him himself. He also went on to say how he himself had died. He meant the old Hound died. The sinful evil Hound. I'm betting the large gravedigger is the Hound. How would that guy know all of that stuff about the Hound wanting to kill his brother and being filled with all hate unless he'd heard his confession? And no one and I mean no one other than the Hound could have gotten his horse to go with them. Yeah. The Hound is there. The gravedigger!!

I just read the Cat of the Canals chapter. I knew as soon as she plopped those black boots down for Brusco or whatever his name is that she'd killed that guy. She IS becoming the grim reaper lol At least she's killing people that deserve it. That blindness thing better be temporary.

Bronn's thing has me stumped. I think it's important but I can't figure out why yet. Naming his bastard Tyrion would obviously cause the Queen's wrath. I smell Varys and/or Tyrion involved in whatever it is he's doing. I also think Qyburn may very well be a Varys plant. I have about 200 pages to go. I hope I get done today.

Yeah I'm sure Nymeria and her pack will enter into things eventually. I laughed when she said that guy smelled like a camel c**t.
