Battle after battle whether with sword or words this book keeps your head turning from player to player never knowing what to expect for the next turn.
Tywin Lannister, the patriarch of the cunning, deceitful, entitled and sometimes incestuous Lannister clan makes it clear that "some battles are won with swords and spears, others with quills and ravens."
Stannis Baratheon chooses to fight his battles of words and swords with the red woman always by his side. Has he been brainwashed by this witchy woman? Or is he truly the chosen one of the Lord of Light and does the red woman really have the power to see the future in the flames?
Baseborn Jon Snow, sworn brother of the Night's Watch, finds himself in a position that just might land him fighting his own brotherhood against his will. While his half sister Arya is fighting for her life to get to her mother Catelyn or brother Robb.
Daenerys is doing everything in her power to get an immense army together in order to get to the Seven Kingdoms and reclaim her rightful throne with her three dragons by her side.
Catelyn fights her own grief after losing so many loved ones. She may need to fight her own madness if she loses another. Sansa is still a hostage in the city if King's Landing and must brave every new torment thrown at her.
My favorite line in this book: "You raped her. You murdered her. You killed her children."
