A Dance with Dragons: A return to form. Jon is boss here, while Danearys waits yet another book for someone to come pick her up if she and the dragons are ever going to make it. Jon has a good death. I just hope he stays dead and isn't revived by some more voodoo magic. I'm thinking the wall and the rest of the north will soon fall now.

It seems a little bit anticlimactic for Rhaegar and Lyanna's son to die from a sword through the chest from a steward and just stay dead.

I don't like the voodoo that, in my mind, was introduced with Renly's death

It's not voodoo, it's a fairly well-explained magic mechanic drawn from Rh'llor. This is still a fantasy novel; I feel like the little touches of magic keep it from becoming (very interesting) historical fiction.
