What are your opinions about Daenerys Targaryen, Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Breaker of Chains, and Mother of Dragons? Think she will settle down and loose sight of original goal or....?

Well, I think the obvious clash that's coming in some form is the dragons vs. others. Dunno how that'll go down, though. Maybe she'll 'rescue' the Kingdom and use that as a platform to go for the throne?

Two books to go... Right now only GRRM knows.

Aah, speculation on how this will play out in the end... Guilty myself. Some fascinating theories out there but perhaps best not to look 'em up if you're watching the show and not hanging for the next book.

The words "yes my lady" will never be the same even coming from a Squire to Brienne of Tarth.

Yes. Maybe not entirely selfless, but it suffices to say he has other loyalties.

Mostly for the good of the Kingdom. Only truly selfish thing he's done thus far is using his power to bring the guy who cut off his balls to King's Landing in a crate

That's interesting. Poetic license from the show or info (that is in future books) from GRRM?

I don't think so. Don't recall that bit.

This season is making me re-read the books, nearly finished Clash of Kings. One thing I picked up again is that there was already a character called "reek" with Theon when he took Winterfell yet the one holding\torturing Theon changed his nickname to Reek. Is there some poetic justice I missed?

The Bastard of Bolton was acting as Reek to lure in Theon.
He had a pet Reek before, who was killed in the fighting. So he replaced original Reek with Theon.

That was Ramsay, who later captured Theon and named him Reek.
