Dany is almost killed in her last chapter in this book... she decides that she's had enough of Quarth and is looking for a ship. The Xaxoos guy or whatever his name is, tries to bargain ships for one of her dragons, but Dany tells him straight up - dude one of my dragons is worth 1/3rd of the world's ships. So he buggers off, but Pyath Pree is also out to get her so he sends a guy with a fancy box, which holds a scarab which is actually a manticore which tries to kill her. Two strangers who had been following her kill it. It so happens they had been sent from Pentos to bring her there. They have three ships, and of course the bossy girl she has become she changes the ships' names. Also they let her know that Westeros is in deep s#@! and has 4 kings last they were there. She secretly smiles to herself. So hopefully we'll hear more of her side this next book? Or not?
Davos is captured by the Lannisters... but oh wait let's go back to how. Last we heard of Tyrion he had sent off Mycella, and Tommen. Told Joffrey he can prepare himself for war, and Cersei was pissed at that and thus roped in Alayaya into the mess. Shortly after all this they prepared for war, and Tyrion had all sorts of sneaky stuff set up for Stannis fleet arriving by sea, AND on land. That chain of his is finally put to use, and he uses alot of "wild fire" which I assume is bombs.
I digress for a second and point out that in the recent Rolling Stones' controversial article it was revealed that the Boston Bomber kid liked "The Walking Dead" series and "The Game of Thrones"/"A Song of Ice and Fire" series. It really bothered me that these details were so important. I know how people and especially this country tends to profile people, so I just want to say you can like these things and it does not impact how violent one is. Violence is not based on race, immigration/ citizenship, or books, ultimately its a person's decision to perform heinous acts... These books, as crazy as they might be, are by no means turning people into mass assasins.
Back to Tyrion, so he's all getting ready for war... digress again for World News- The Brits have another heir to their heir to their heir... its a baby boy! Oh yay and lucky for him, he does not face the same charges as Joffrey. Back to Tyrion, so The war starts, and since Cersei won't let Joffrey get into harms way, and Joff just likes giving orders, and pretending to go brave, Tyrion is like - eff this shit, am gonna go kill some brave people. In the process he is nearly killed by one of their own allies (some guy who's name began with an M), but I think Tyrion kills him in the end, and almost drowns himself, but his little squire Podrik Payne saves him. He wakes up all delirious and realizes his face is effed up, not like he was handsome before, but he is uglier than before. He's really pissed but happy to be alive.
Skipping over to Sansa, she's all cooped up in the building as war wages outside, with Cersei and a bunch of other Lords' Ladies (apparently the Lords were all off fighting). The Hound is there for some reason, he's on hold to kill everyone in case Stannis wins (Cersei has a beautiful mind). She's so upset her son is outside fighting, her son who whines so much. Sansa wishes he dies the whole time, if it isn't mentioned I'm sure she feels it nonetheless. The queen drinks wine, and whines, and they get news that they are failing the battle, then she gets news of some other tragedy and runs off (which is probably not a tragedy). Sansa stays and tells everyone to stay calm. Then more chaos breaks out, and Sansa heads upto her bed chambers, and looks out her room window to see disaster. The hound is in her room for some reason, and he is drunk, and asks her to sing a song before he leaves. So she sings, the whole time I was a afraid he would rape her, but she squeaks out a song. He leaves touched by her singing, tears in the eyes and all, and he basically abandons the Lannisters. He's probably had enough of their BS. Sansa gets the news that the Lannisters won, and Stannis fled defeated by his own brother. It was actually Lord Tywin to the rescue. The next day everyone is knighted, and honored. The prisoners of the enemy are beheaded, and here we hear Davos speak up, another of King Stannis' men speak up and expose Joffrey as being the product of incest and not the true heir. Joffrey gets angry and orders him dead, but at the same time he gets cut my the iron throne. (Which is a sign that he isn't meant to be any sort of king). Joffrey whines like a baby and his mummy runs to him. Tywinn stands there and accepts to be Joffrey's Reagent. Joffrey before getting scraped and crying like the baby he is, accepts Margaery Tyrell's hand in marriage, casting aside Sansa. This makes her happy, but she appears pouty. She runs to the God's Wood and meets her Knight there. She is happy but he says as long as she remains there, Joffrey can still order beaten and could even rape her, and make her bare bastards. She thought she could get away living there for free and not have to deal with Joffrey anymore... wrong! So he says on the night og Joffrey and Margaery's wedding she would have to escape. Dun dun dun!
Jon Snow is told by Ranger Qhorin to leave the men in black (get it ;-) ) and join the wildings to find out their plans. And turns out Yigrette went back to them, btu she helps spare his life. In the mean time, I'm wondering about Samwell and Ghost.
Bran and Rickon have been holed up in the crypts with Jojen, Meera, Osha and Hodor. They sent the wolves off to create a distraction! Theon was ruthless and made to burn down Winterfell when no one wanted to help him out (actually it was some guy who took over his case, I am so confused). So Theon leaves with some people, Reek is no where to be seen, Maester Luwin is hurt and left behind. Bran and all find him and Luwin tells them to send Rickon and Osha to Castle White, some place south. Bran wants to go North to find Willy Wonka's Chocolate factory... ofcourse not he wants to find the blasted three-eyed-crow! Anyway it's sad but Winterfell is in shambles, so they leave.
Arya decides after learning that her brothers are all dead, that she needs to go to Riverrun. She realizes Roose Bolton is going to give the Harenhaal to the mummers, so she decides to leave. She gets Gendry and Hotpie and sneaks out at the dead of night. She kills the first man ever, but it is no matter, she is a Stark and must be as strong as Robb.
And that's the end of A Clash of Kings.
Now on to " A Storm of Swords"
Winter is Coming!
