I just sat there saying 'wow!' out loud! One of the plot lines has come to a rather abrubt end! I know exactly where you are  I did the same a few months ago. Totally unexpected and a complete shock. I've had a bit of a break, but I really must make a start on book 4 soon. Yeah - you do know! I know what you mean about not being able to talk about it. The wife asked me why I was just sitting there with the shocked look on my face and I couldn't explain because she's only finished book 2 and she said she'd kill me if I told her

I just hope they do it properly on TV when they get there. I assume we are talking red wedding?

Yep. It was late at night and I was stuck in a b&b with no-one to vent my surprise at, very frustrating.

I know exactly what bit you are talking about from that description  Can't wait to see that in the TV show. Edit: I had to re read that chapter immediately after finishing it just to make sure I hadn't missed anything.

It might not happen in the 3rd season if they go ahead with their plans to split book 3 into 2 seasons.
Looking at casting calls for season 3 one of them is a fit for Meera Reed so that could still happen.
They also want lots of amputees which could be useful for battle scenes.

Character interaction is excellent, especially varys/tyrion/bronn and jaime/brienne. Also ygritte is perfect.

Was very shocked, but should have expected it with the nature of the books so far.
