I followed that first post surprisingly well. What's with the :| face though?

The next episode, literally everyone is killed by White Walkers.

Did not see GRR Martin spending roughly book 4 on on the takeover of Westeros by White Walkers coming. Must be a lot of gurgling for the political/war dialog.

Sadly, Books 4 and 5 are quite sedate when it comes to deaths. It's as if GRRM lost his taste for the stuff. I'm waiting for another POV character to die, hopefully in Book 6.

Did he stop adding characters in those books?
