[QUOTE="stevelabny, post: 1303345, member: 9298"] I still think Jon Snow is the LEAST likeable character and the one most asking for a beating. Whines constantly about his duty, than abandons all logic and friendship to do his duty so he can look all noble. And even though I'm firmly on the Rhaegar+Lyanna=Jon bandwagon, which would make him the central character of the series, I still hope right after he gets his moment of glory, any two-bit character with a sword cuts him down and says "You know NOTHING Jon Snow" as they spit on his corpse. But thats just me :-D But one comment to Celtavian: Cersei will definately be more of a sympatheic character in her own POV. The mindless-masses ALWAYS are much easier on someone when they can see it from their eyes. Look at Jaime. Most readers talk about despising Jaime UNTIL he got his POV, and now some go as far as to call him a tragic hero. I don't know why the average person can't ever see a situation from the viewpoint of the "bad guy" otherwise, but thats the way its always been. This is my favorite part of the series though, that if you look hard enough, you can see every side of every story, whether you have a POV or not. [/QUOTE]
