Since July 2011, readers of George R.R. Martin's books have been in suspense about the fate of one of the series' central characters, Jon Snow.
Now, nearly five years later, Sunday's episode of Game of Thrones, titled "Home," has resolved this cliffhanger in dramatic and definitive fashion.
As many fans suspected, Jon Snow was not in fact gone for good. With the aid of Melisandre's magic, he returned to life in the final moments of this week's episode.
And though some may cry foul that Game of Thrones has chickened out of killing a major character, delivering a cheap fake-out instead, this is a plot development that's been long in the making.
There were ample clues in the books and hints by the show's creators that Jon's death wouldn't necessarily be permanent, as I wrote last week (and last year). And the series laid the groundwork for Melisandre's resurrection of him all the way back in season three.
So the big question all along, to me, hasn't been whether Jon Snow would come back — it's been whether his brush with death would make the character more interesting. And on that, the jury's still out.
