What's going on with Jaime and Brienne? Seriously, the whole book we get what, 2 chapters? Why isn't Cersei dead yet?
What's up with the ****ing Zombie in the kingsguard?
What's up with Daenerys and the Khalasar at the end? I get the whole 'in order to go forward, you must go back thing' is that forshadowing? Is she going to take this Khalasar and march on Meereen? Why would she do that? As far as she knows, the Yunkai aren't backstabbing *******s and have already left the city and everything is good.
In the end, this book set up way too many things with out resolving anything of substance. I mean, 5 years is a long time, you can come up with something better than that.

Consider yourself lucky you haven't been reading Robert Jordan's
Wheel of Time series that has been going on since 1990. 14 books, millions of words, ten-thousand pages, and a dead author that is being completed by another one. While the Song of Fire & Ice series has been going on for some time, we could have it a whole lot worse that other fantasy series.
