    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    When the new WoT book came out I started re-reading them with the intent of reading it; I got through 1-9 in about a week and a half and then just ..stalled on book 10 for some reason. Maybe it's because I really dislike Cadsuane.
    I gave up on whatever book that was 1400+ pages (aren't they all?), and Mat wasn't in a single one of them. 1400+ pages! And Jordan couldn't put him in anywhere....(is my favorite character).

    Incidentally there are no words to express how stupid it was to pick a tag from a toilet literature fantasy series that everyone with eyeballs has read

    Mat Cauthon is absent from the book, due to injuries sustained at the end of the previous book, A Crown of Swords. Robert Jordan had earlier done the same for Perrin Aybara, who had been absent from Book 5, The Fires of Heaven.

    Bingo.

    Fuck that book.

    I just finished the third book today. Mat is my favorite character. Rand is a little bitch and Perrin is a furfag. I need to get the rest of the books asap.

    I kinda dislike the most recent Game of Thrones because he split what was originally gonna be one massive book into two, the first of which only focuses on half of the characters, and the second half which has more characters I like is still not out.

    Sorry

    Spoilers: Mat is still the best character 9 books later, even if he doesn't get enough screentime.

    I can't like characters in that series. Every time I get a favorite, they end up dying.

    Man, the chick who plays Arya is spot on with what I imagined: http://grrm.livejournal.com/146489.html

    I hope she can act!
