. . . when you're reading a chapter from someone's perspective, I almost always want that person to succeed.

I disagree with your assessment on several occasions over the length of the series.

I've actually very much found this not to be the case. One of the things I think he does really well is that, when you're reading a chapter from someone's perspective, I almost always want that person to succeed.

Well yeah, this also tends to be true. The man writes really compelling characters, and during chapters focusing on a certain POV, unless it's someone like say Cersei, I generally want them to succeed, too. That being said, though, everyone I know who's read the books has one House that they want to see win, that they personally would fly the colors of, so to speak.

NO way. The Lannister characters are by far the most interesting.

Haha, hilariously, the friend that introduced me to the books also loves the Lannisters. We get along well. It's the Stark types I tend to butt heads with, and the Baratheons, well fuck those guys.

I might just be wishy washy. Back when I used to play Legend of the Five Rings a lot, I could never pick my favorite clan either.

Screw you, man. The Starks and Baratheons will have their revenge on all who opposed them. Winter is Coming after all. :mrgreen:

The Martells are pretty awesome. If they fuck up Oberyn, I will be pissed.
(Un)Fortunately, that's an age off yet.
