You skipped a book. A Clash of Kings comes in between the two.

The Red Wedding Spoiler










Ok, Robb married another chick that wasnt a Walder and reneged on the deal he had with Late Walder for letting him cross the twins in GOT. I think the battle was called Whispiring Woods they captured Jamie in it. Late Walder Frey is a kind of guy that takes things real personally so he colaborated with Lord Bolton after King Robb and Riverrun setup a wedding to appease the old man and get his help again. Lord of Riverrun was suppose to marry one of his daughters or grandchildren or something. So they had the wedding then they played that song of casimere and the Twins slaguthered the unperpared and unexpectings Northmen and Rivermen. They cut off Grey Winds head and planted it on Robs body with the Crown(Hated it my favorite character)(Also fortold by Daenarys in AGOK) then they cut Lady Cats throat and threw her in the river naked mocking a tradition of Riverrun(I loved that part). So you ask who was responsible, a lot of people but the mastermind was the Late Lord Walder Frey and Lord Bolton. Plus they had help from Lord Tywins subjects for setting the table. The chick that married Robb, her parents were in it as well.

Or if your suspicous then the Lord of Light might have had a hand in it as well.......spookkkyyyy

So everyone in the kindgom thinks the Freys are scumbags because they broke the #1 rule and killed a guest in there house. O yeah Lady Cat is a zombie now. She cant talk because of her throat is cut almost to the back end and shes all messed up she has bald patches on her head. Real ugly and speechless.(The way it should be)

PS I havent read AFFC yet

A Clash of Kings is the second book not the third.
The Red Wedding was the wedding of Edmure Tully to one of Walder Frey's daughters. He had to marry one of them because Robb Stark broke his promise to marry her. After the wedding feast the Frey's attacked Robb's men. Catelyn took one of Lord Frey's grandsons hostage to try and stop the blood bath. It didn't work. The Frey's killed Robb and Catelyn. They threw Catelyn's body into the Trident River and decapitated Robb and Grey Wind and put the wolf's head on Robb's body.
Not at all nice.
Eastcide is right too.

It's also sort of important for AFFC that a huge portion of the Northmenand Rivermen's nobility were taken hostage by the Freys during the Red Wedding, including Lord Edmure of Riverrun himself.

The first half of AFFC was a real hard slog I felt but has begun to pick up now past the half way point. Cant wait to read the next book in the series cos it has all the main important characters in it like Dany.

I really dislike Danys snobish attitude. I hope GRRM gives her a little taste of the real world:mad: I hope he makes the Dragon mad, and she falls on her face:)
