I'm more of a Happily Ever After kinda gal, I guess. :) Like I said, I don’t think my nerves could handle the rest of the books. I’m more of a Happily Ever After kinda gal, I guess.

Ned bites the big one because he's a naive idealist. there are way too many characters. Thanks to Ned's, umm, demise, most of the other characters smarten up pretty quick, and there are some handy family tree type things at the end (which i refer too ALL THE TIME while reading these books). Martin is very much worth reading, yes he's epic, yes he loves cliffhangers, yes he bashes you over the head with some things. But he's worth it. And did I mention there is a Game of Thrones board game? it's geeky heaven! Everything you said about Game of Thrones is true.

I've read the second book (re-reading it again now, since I just finished the first), but never went further. I almost never went beyond the first book, only because the ending with Dany was so perfect I didn't want to read a sequel and have all that ruined. I think this time, I'll keep reading and find out where he takes it. I re-read Game of Thrones last month for the class, but I loved the book from the first time I read it years ago.
