Probably out of line. But I think I'm not the only reader of the series who feels a strong sense of betrayal, and has given up on it. I apologize for the spoiler. Probably out of line.

Not because quality has deteriorated, but because the books have become, frankly, perverse. All those interesting, sympathetic characters you learn to like in the first volume? Martin is going to either a) kill them off in the cruelest possible manners, or b) turn them into monsters. Just a word of caution.
