Now, to flogg this dead horse some more...

I think in past threads where this was discussed at nausea, the general consensus was that AFFC was a good book, did advance the storyline of the series, gave us interesting perspectives on certain characters (Cersei, Jaime, Sam, Arya), revealed some stuff (Dorne and Iron Island's plans) BUT was not as fast paced as ACOK or ASOS and the split in characters worked to a certain degree, however most people's favourite characters (Jon, Tyrion, Dany, Bran, Davos) were not in the book at all, thus wetting the appetite even more after a 5 year or so wait.
