I Take It Back

I went on about an ASOIAF fan theory I thought was interesting and had some merit back in this post. I argued that maybe Jon Snow wasn't Ned Stark's bastard son, but was instead Lyanna's son by Rhaegar. I take it back. I was clearly wrong. Now that the Stark kids are starting to have weird wolf powers, and Jon is sharing in those powers, it's clear that they're all siblings.

I still have 20% of A Clash Of Kings left. A review will be coming later, maybe early next week. In the meantime, here's what I think so far:

• Theon is a jerk
• Tyrion is awesome
• Joffrey needs to just die already. Please?
• I feel so bad for Sansa. I want her to escape
• Arya is awesome, as always. I have complete faith in her
• Brienne is pretty cool, too.
• I hope the Starks win the war, but it's not looking good.
• I really want to see what happens with Dany. She's amazing and her story is awesome. But I want her to get her butt to Westeros. I imagine that won't actually happen until the last book, though.
• I refuse to believe that Bran and Rickon are dead. It's not true. They melded with Summer and Shaggy Dog or something. Or Theon's just trying to trick everyone for some awful reason. But they aren't dead.
• Actually, the next chapter is a Theon chapter, so I'm guessing their deaths will actually be confirmed soon. Boo.

Man, I've been reading this book forever. And it's the shortest of the series. I may have to take a break and devour a couple of shorter books after I finish this one.
