User blog comment:Etindel/Who else is disappointed with the Season 3 final scene?/@comment-1600847-20130611003221

I'm not surprised it wasn't as action-packed or plot-twisty as the previous seasons, which were mostly based on the finales of books 1 and 2, whereas season 3 finale is based on approximately the middle of book 3. Just wait for season 4, non-book readers. If you thought season 3 was mind-blowing... season 4 will put it to SHAME.
