Krakenface Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 To be honest, Dany's miscarriage at the end of Game of Thrones really got me, not the fact that she lost the child (though that was somewhat shocking) but the way in which it happened - a malformed and unrecognisable baby. with maggots inside, if I correctly recall...

Yes, that completely shocked me too. I remember reading all about her pregnancy, and the Stallion who Mounts the World and thinking that she would give birth and then the books would skip on 20 years to when he's marauding all over the place etc etc. Little did I know!

TrueOrFalse Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 For me, probably Ned's death and the fact that it was told in an Arya chapter. I just wasn't expecting it to happen so bluntly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Prince of Dorne Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Reek aka Ramsay and his men killing Ser Rodrick and the other Northmen outside of Winterfell, then putting it to the torch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree,maybe its the biggest surprise because we didnt know much about Bolton's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moriath Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 The most shocking one for me was that Robb was one of the most successful kings of all. I'd thought he would make naive mistakes, but damn.. He just cleaned the table :bowdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Clegane Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Re-reading COK and I never get tired of the Hound and his ability to see through much of the garbage that is happening. He's not supposed to be smart and calculated but he is. And though his flight in the battle against Stannis can be viewed as cowardice, it actually took quite a lot for him to abandon that former life. He's leaving all he knows behind, primarily because he can no longerr stand idly by while so many other (more terrible) ppl control his destiny. He doesn't like fire, he is afraid of fire and maybe more so afraid of what is happening all around him, so he finally acts and for the first time that we can see is true to what he believes/wants to do... And although that action is to embrace his fears and run, it is refreshing to see him finally embrace his instincts and maybe become something more than just someone's dog.

Daddylonglegs Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I think it's hard to beat Ned's beheading. It's the moment that caused us to expect the unexpected, but up until that point, the main characters were considered "safe." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
