ADWD Reek I, Bran II

Good news and bad news, everyone. The bad news is that Theon Greyjoy's still alive.

The good news is yeeeuueueueuueueueururrrrgh.

Okay.  The good news is that Theon-

No that doesn't work.  Whatever he is now, I can't forgive Theon. So I can't say "he's alive" is good news. Not that he'd think so at this point either.

Okay so Theon has been tortured to insanity and back, is minus a couple of fingers, eating the occasional rat, and here to show us what the most evil son of a bitch in the entire series is up to. I'm still waiting to see what the deal is with this marriage between Ramsay and a girl pretending to be Arya Stark.

Meanwhile even further north, Bran and company are nearly killed before meeting a Child of the Forest and then the last greenseer. It looks like his plot might actually finally be going somewhere. Then I look at the online chapter listing and discover he's got exactly one more chapter in this book. Hurrah.
