I'm so far behind. I got my mother into the series so she pretty much stole the books from me while I went on a x-men: first class binge, so I have to catch up. Still on ASoS, by ADWD is staring at me, tempting me to open it.

I would love to see Stannis on the throne, but I get the feeling that no one's going to be left alive to sit the throne when GRRM's through. He seems like the type to just end with everyone dead.
