It's a civil war. It's messy. There are more sides to every side and those sides swap sides. It's often impossible to tell who is who, as new houses and factions emerge. But somehow it all comes together.
And it's a great, if harrowing read.
Ps, presumably Daenerys will eventually feature as something more than a wanderer.
