Mr Martin has jumped the rails with this lost in the woods tale. I could tolerate the changing character POVs in the first three books even though I found Mr. Martin's habit of killing off the most interesting of the lot annoying, but in this book he not only kills, maims and discards the good he keeps and focuses on the bad. Why would anyone move on to the inevitable next book, when there is no one of any interest left. Surely the base for this series is not so desperate for reading material they will keep reading when nothing is left to read. I hear there is a fifth novel, glee! Only at gunpoint, I'm off to find a graphic novel or kiddie book, something with some substance. After this Great Expectations sounds like an exciting read. Do the right thing stop at book two and make up your own ending. You'll be happier and better served.
