My main problem with the sigils is he describes every sigil in existence. If you don’t like Game of Thrones, come up with a better reason for you say so… I just don’t think sigils need an entire paragraph to describe them. He’s not dropping acid just because he likes description. If there weren’t multiple paragraphs describing the scenery, how will we, the readers, have an adequate picture of what’s going on? Come on. I’m not saying that GRRM is fantastic, or that he doesn’t introduce some superfluous characters/houses, but your argument is really, really stupid. In case you’ve forgotten, description is one of the fundamental things that makes any given piece of literature memorable. Sometimes multiple paragraphs are devoted to describing the banner of a house, or the way sunlight reflects off the scenery” are. A knight from House Swann is part of the Kingsguard, and those characters become pretty important later on, too.Īlso, Jim Lahey, I just want to point out how silly the sentences, “Honestly, read through any of the books and tell me you’re not reading a list of colors and descriptory words at least half the time.

We get to see him next season, so you can look forward to that.

House Bolton becomes really important in the North later on in the series, and the only character from House Seaworth is this awesome guy called Davos, who is with Stannis.
