Welcome back to A Read of Ice and Fire! Please join me as I read and react, for the very first time, to George R.R. Martin’s epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire.
Today’s entry is Part 22 of A Storm of Swords, in which we cover Chapter 39 (“Arya”).
Apologies for the one chapter post, but a little bird tipped me off (without spoilers, thank you) that Chapters 40 and 41 apparently really need to go together, so rather than try and cram all that in, I figured it would be better to wait till next week to tackle whatever’s about to go down. I’m either agog or very apprehensive. Or both.
Previous entries are located in the Index. The only spoilers in the post itself will be for the actual chapters covered and for the chapters previous to them. As for the comments, please note that the Powers That Be have provided you a NEW lovely spoiler thread here on Tor.com. (The first one is now closed but can be found here.) Any spoileriffic discussion should go there, where I won’t see it. Non-spoiler comments go below, in the comments to the post itself.
And now, the post!
