What a great season finale. Not single, huge cliffhanger, but they did great justice to each of the storylines. Extremely satisfying.

S3 is going to be amazing.

AV Club does reviews of each episode every week, one for people who haven't read the book, and ones for those who have, discussing the changes and why they are good/bad. They are interesting reads.

Season 3 is only going to be half of Storm of Swords.
