If someone dies in the show who's still alive as of the latest book, it's because they're gong to die. Especially major characters. Thank you so much. I thought I was the only person who realized this, haha. If Stannis dies in the show, he's going to die in the books. His book death just might be handled... better than it was in the show. Like with Shireen when she died: on the Ice and Fire forums, people were crying out how the producers were "making shit up", until someone posted a link to an intrview revealing that it was in fact GRRM who told the producers how Shireen was going to die in the upcoming books.
