It was a lot of scene setting — 5 court scenes, 1 change of direction and 1 to set up surgery on a minor character? This was my concern with the TV team, it’s a lot easier to do pace and space when you’re following detailed existing material, and now that’s gone. And I suspect that as a notorious expectations-averse plotter, GRRM’s so far unwritten endgame is a bit flaky. I anticipate if he finishes this, he’ll change the novel ending just because he likes surprises. At least I know HBO will finish it first and that will become the canonical ending.
