He's a 16 year old boy who managed to out think Tywin Lannister on the battlefield never losing a battle. He is his father's son, too trusting of his allys (curse you Bolton...) and he is punished severely for it. |
Good point about his age. We forget forget how young they were in books as they all seem 3-4 years older in the show.
Going to read books 2, 3 and 4 before next season starts. I've read the first. It becomes kind of hard reading them after already knowing what happens but the writing is high quality and there is just so much detail.
